If I happened to have a child born on leap day, they could have a birthday party on their actual birth day every time. Which is my roundabout way of stating my strict once every 4 years birthday party policy. Since Elise turned 12, she was able to throw party #3 (and they said you'd never use math in everyday life).She decided on a sleepover party, which means my chief responsibility was to sit in the corner and pretend to be invisible. I overheard more girl talk than can possibly be healthy for someone past the age of 25. Luckily, the talk had a damper from the incessant texting (this texting also doused any consideration for ever buying my poor daughter a cell phone). Anyway, the girls had a lot of fun, I got prime uninterrupted laptop time, and the other kids got to go to a movie with Dad.
The cake is my attempt at an iPod. I was running late, so didn't have time to make it perfect. I was trying to make it the color of Elise's nano, but it didn't work as well as I'd hoped. If you're interested, click here for a better looking example and instructions.
Cute cake.
ReplyDeleteCan't wait til Kaylee is old enough to want to text.....sheesh it comes up quick on you doesn't it.
It drives me insane to see kids that age texting. You go to a youth dance and half the kids are in the hall texting...great socialization. Anyway, I'm glad Elise had a fun birthday. I can't believe she's in YW already!
ReplyDeleteSounds like what I am beginning to experience. Cute cake.
ReplyDeletehow cool! happy birthday to Elise. I can't believe she is 12, whoa time is flyin'. =0)
ReplyDeleteCool Cake. Hope you have a good birthday party Elise. Glad you were born. Love ya
ReplyDeleteI really wish I could have been there, I am such a sucker for gossip I'll even take it from 12 year old girls :-)
ReplyDeleteCute cake, I could totally tell what it is.
The cake looks really good! You are such a dinosaur not letting Elise get a cell phone! ;) Your party every 4 years is really starting to catch with me.
