Today is May 30 (Saturday) and it turned out to be a wonderful day for the party. Jese was so excited for his very own Birthday Cake, that he chose to be 'Nemo' and Vanilla (Banilla in Jese lingo). He is now 5 years old and very proud to be too.
I made the yellow cake from scratch and gave it bavarian cream filling with butter-cream icing. For anyone who is interested... I did a reverse butter-cream transfer image of nemo and a swirl of color directly on the cake for the water. I know that I'm crazy, but it sure is fun to be crazy, so why not?
Dad (Grandpa Verne) requested a chocolate cake for his special day... don't know if I should say how old he is. He got some khaki shirt, since he can never have enough, some tools, and a book about Washington that he didn't want to put down after he opened it.
Even though the turn out was not so great we all had a lot of fun. Mom (Nancy) made homemade potato salad and homemade fruit salad. YUMMY!!! We all had hotdog, chips, and strawberry lemonade. Time to add another notch to the belt.
Looks like fun! Wish I could have been there. Jese's cake looks amazing! Of course I didn't expect anything less than amazing knowing that you were making it. ;)
