Larye's Birthday

Evy helped get ready for Daddy's birthday party this week by baking his birthday cake. Here is the full story from Evy's perspective...


First we got out the big shiny pan and mommy sprayed so the cake wouldn't stick.

Then we got out a bowl and a spoon so we could start mixing stuff together.

But I decided I need to thoroughly check the bowl out first.

You just never know what you are going to find in these bowls these days. So I decided to get a closer look.

In the middle of my task I decided to have a little spoon snack. Mmmm...tasty.

This recipe clearly calls for a stick of butter and 3 eggs. Why do I only have one?

Well after the butter and eggs I wasn't much help with the mixing, but I watched mommy put the cake in the oven.

And I was exhausted, so I took a nap while it baked.

When I woke up it was all done. All except for the frosting.

And even though I didn't get to lick the spoon I still liked the chocolate frosted cake.

I had a toy to munch on. Are you sure you have a good hold on that mommy? I'm not too busy. I could help!

I did want to write "Happy Birthday Daddy" on the cake in green frosting, but after I got a little on my nose mommy decided this was a job best left to her alone.

Daddy's birthday was fun and I am glad I got to help make his cake. Maybe next year I can help eat it too! Happy Birthday Daddy. I love you.
