Mom's Birthday!


Last Monday night we had a Small birthday dinner here at home for mom. (even though her birthday was Sunday) We did it so early because Grandma and Grandpa wanted to be here to celebrate it, and they left on Saturday Morning. And because it was the only night that week that Aasha was going to be home early. (The rest of the nights she was out late practicing the play in Bellview.) Grandma made a ham, with some potato's, dad made a green salad, we had some veggies, and i made some homemade rolls. Than for dessert we had Angle Food cake with strawberries, whipped cream, and this sweet strawberry sauce on top of it. We were all so stuffed afterwords that it almost hurt to walk. Grandma gave her these flowers...

With this balloon...

On Sunday we had another small birthday dinner, with Lillie, Russell, Marissa, Alicia and Cheyanne. We had pork chops, baked potato's, green salad and some fruit stuff. For dessert i made her a Lazy Daisy Cake, but after i cooked it i realized that it most likely wouldn't be enough (even though i doubled the recipe) and that most people wouldn't want it. (You see it had coconut in the glaze and nuts on top of half of the cake.) So i decided to made a Devil's Food Cake. But we didn't have any chocolate, so i just didn't add any. The cake was a Vanilla Devil's Food Cake, with blue Wedding Cake Frosting on top of it. Both cakes were very good, and finished up very fast.
HAPPY 40TH BIRTHDAY MOM! WE ALL LOVE YOU SO MUCH! THANKS FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR US!

Happy B-day to your ma! You are a seriously creative cook! I need to hire you, or adopt you or something. I am a terrible cook!
