Gemma and Gavin both had birthdays a few weeks ago! Gavin turned 9 and Gemma turned 5. We had a birthday party for them at a nearby park, and my mom made each of them their own cake (thanks mom!!). Gemma’s was a redhead princess (we used the new “Brave” barbie) with a large icing dress, and Gavin’s was a skateboard cake made out of rice krispie treats and chocolate – yum!
Gavin’s passion in life is his skateboard. He really can’t get enough!
9 candles – wow!
We also celebrated each of them on their real birthdays, and let them have a dessert of their choice and open gifts from Tristan and I. There is always plenty of celebrating to go around:)
What’s your favorite birthday memory from your childhood?

Omg. I love that last pic of Gemma! So sweet! My most childhood birthday was when I turned 8. I invited all my friends for a dress up tea party. SO FUN!

What awesome cakes!!! Love it. My favorite bday memory was when I turned six. My youngest sister, Christy, was born 3 days before my sixth bday, on April 15th. My mom had to have a c-section, so she was still in the hospital on my bday. We had my party there, and I got a sticker book and some other gifts (that I don’t remember) and I got to hold my youngest baby sister! That began a very close friendship that I still have with Christy. Our friendship is very much like yours and Stormie’s. We are like peas and carrots! ;)

Very cool ideas for cakes….my daughter is turning 6 in August and wants a “Brave” themed cake, and I just so happen to have one of those old school doll dress cake molds! Thanks for the inspiration! God bless!
