Happy 12th Birthday Rachel!

April 21, 2021

Rachel really enjoys baking and she wanted to try out cake decorating with fondant. So, she made and decorated her own birthday cake!

Great job Rachel for your very first attempt!

Later that evening we “lit up” our birthday celebration:

Make a wish!

We continued the tradition, carried over from my Mom’s side of the family, of making another wish as you cut the cake:

Apparently cutting through the fondant was a little more challenging than a regular frosted cake. We all (mostly) waited patiently:

Time for birthday cards and gifts. We started with the cards. This one was unexpected:

A card from her (not so favorite) teacher. Perhaps you’ll like her a little more now Rachel?!

A card and gift$ from Aunt Elynn:

Thank you so much for remembering me every year Aunt Elynn!

Next a card from Grandpa Ed and Grandma Joyce:

A beautiful card from Grandma and Grandpa!

And gifts from Grandpa Ed and Grandma Joyce:

Beautiful!!
A calligraphy set!
Thank you Grandpa Ed and Grandma Joyce!

A gift from Lizzy:

A very nice card from Lizzy.
Art canvases!
And acrylic paint! Thanks Lizzy!

Now for a gift from mom and dad:

A new mountain bike!
Awesome!
Happy Birthday Rachel We Love You So Much!!
