Bear's 3rd Birthday

May 27th was Bear's 3rd Birthday!!!! This is the first "real" birthday cake we attempted!!! The crust is pecans & raisins. The icing is fresh dates and lemon blended till creamy and then topped with fresh raspberries! It took the boys a full week to recover from eating this cake :-)



Bear really enjoyed eating all of the raspberries off the cake first! I think if I had it all to do over again I would have just given him a huge bowl of berries!

The present aftermath......



While Bear took his nap Cooper was such the helper as we put together a little party for Bear. We went into the crawl space and pulled out all of the decorations and blew up balloons together. I tell this story because now EVERY time we are near the crawl space door Coop wants to put together a birthday party! This video is when Bear has just woken up from his nap and we are surprising him with his party.




This video is me horribly singing Happy Birthday BUT I posted it because it's of Bear making a wish and blowing out his candle!



This video is of Jim calling in to sing happy birthday to Bear!

I think all in all it was a great day for Bear and now they want to have birthday's pretty often. We took our leftover cake to the neighbors across the street (Jim & Kelly) and they gave the boys some more. Then we took it to Edna & Doug's and they gave the boys some more. Needless to say the boys ask for "birfday" cake often!!
