Rachel's 6th and Caleb's 2nd birthday party


Rachel and her friend Abby. They just got done playing on the slip and slide and having hot dogs and watermelon when they were called in for presents and cake and ice cream. We couldn't get a picture with Abby hugging Rachel without her thumb in her mouth.


Rachel opening the pillow pet she got from Grandma! She was so excited that she got the one she really wanted. How are Grandma's so magic?!


She got the barbie and the mermaid tale that was on her list.



The first present Caleb opened was a ball from Nanny and Paka ( Grandpa). He didn't put it down for the rest of the evening!


He couldn't believe his luck in getting a pillow pet too.
That was almost worthy of putting his ball down.

Little watermelon face and tummy, still with his ball, and new broom broom!


Sadie and Nanny. Mom would blow the noise maker then put it up to Sadie's mouth, she would grab it and mimic the same noise. It was too CUTE! She thought she was a clever girl.


Rachel and her cake. I usually turn the cakes out, but this time I was lazy and left them in the pan. My ankle hurt too much to take the extra time. Nobody seemed to care, thank goodness.


Blowing out her candles and making a wish.


Caleb trying to figure out what to do.
( Caleb's birthday isn't until the 4th of August, but we decided to combine their birthdays together.)

  1. They are all getting so big! I need to see them. They'll all be off and married before I know it!

  2. It’s a very cute party! Can you share the recipe of this cake? It looks really tempting. It has also been a very long time that I made a cake. I was also thinking of becoming a pro in bakery because I attend food fests a lot that take place in venue NYC and it motivates me to become a fine baker.
