This post is a little of everything that we have been doing the last couple of days in celebration of Macey and Annie's birthdays.
On Sunday night we made a peace sign cake for Macey. She wanted to invite her friend over for cake. We invited the friend and her whole family over to sing Happy Birthday and have some cake. Macey liked how her cake turned out!
Macey had a hard time blowing out her candles. She kept laughing and it sounded like she was panting. She did finally get them all out!
Macey and my nephew, Jacob, share the same birthday. So on their "real" birthday we had Jacob and his family, and Grandma and Grandpa over for pizza. We also celebrated Annie's birthday since Wednesday's (her "real" birthday) are too crazy to try and get everyone together.

Now for Annie's Birthday/St. Patrick's Day!!
This is Kambree's St. Patricks Day hair do.
Here is Annie's. Can you tell they are 3 leaf clovers?
Almost every year Annie gets a St. Patty's Day themed birthday cake. This year I did a rainbow cake inside and out. (Heather I heard you made one too!) 
First I made 6 bowls of batter in the colors of the rainbow.
After they were all baked I had them cool on the counter.
All stacked up. 
Annie's traditional birthday poster picture. See her hat? She wore it all day and didn't take it off till bedtime, even when we went out to dinner!

Checking everything out.
Now back to the cake. I finished decorating it. I had a few problems because I tried a new icing recipe and it was too runny even though it tasted really good! The layers kept on sliding around and it didn't stick to the sides very well.
Blowing out the candles.
It looks pretty fun inside! We actually didn't eat the cake for a few hours after she blew out the candles. First we went out to dinner at our families favorite restaurant, Jason's Deli, then we split up. Brad took Macey to her thing and we took Nelson to his thing. A few hours later after picking everyone up we finally had cake.
The next two pictures are for Grandma Merrilee. She loves her Fairies book!
