Happy Birthday, Grandma!

I must say, I think their mom was more interested in making mini cakes than the girls. Possibly true with the exception that they LOVED licking the bowl/spatula/spoon and had fun eating the cake. Isn't that usually how it is?

Of course, they also really enjoyed "sharing" the cake with Grandma.

Megan was a little distraught that Miranda was grabbing some of the fondant off Grandma's (Megan's?) cake.


Here's your Birthday Cake, Grandma!
We hope you like RED and chocolate.


Miranda didn't finish her dinner,
and so she didn't get to eat any "Happy Birthday".
She still had fun singing with us.



Zoë enjoyed every bite of her cake.


Megan had fun eating the fondant.
She wasn't quite as interested in the cake.



Veronica shows off her new-found ability:
grabbing her frog
and stuffing it in her mouth!



I am so grateful that we have so many different technologies that allow us to see/communicate/share with family! Not only did we get to video record the girls singing Happy Birthday, but we later got to talk with Grandma (and Grandpa) on Skype (great format for IM and video conferences between Macs and PCs).

We wish you a VERY Happy Birthday!!!

AWW Poor Miranda! No birthday cake?
I think it's great that your mom was able to be there to share her birhtday with her grandkids. The cakes look so fun.. Love the mini idea!

Miranda had a hard time determining to whom we were singing. Grandma is Travis' mom, for whose birthday we made cakes. Nana is my mom, and her birthday is in May. Miranda was a little confused, and we had to show her pictures for her to understand Nana and Grandma were different people.

I love the singing and the cake is perfect. I don't have to worry about eating the chocolate and it isn't fattening and it IS BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the candle too!
