Birthday in Heaven Cake

Every year we celebrate Papa Dave's Birthday. This was the cake we came up with this year. He loved doing crossword puzzles, so we thought this was a great memory to share on his birthday.

2nd Annual: A Birthday for Cow Party

We have been reading Jan Thomas's books for quite a few years. Rachel loves all of them. So last year, while reading A Birthday for Cow, we realized that Cow's birthday was October 17th in the book. Naturally, we thought it would be a good reason to celebrate! (https://workingmomwonders.blogspot.com/2017/10/jan-thomas-book-birthday-party.html) And, we can't just do it once; it is now a tradition the kids look forward to. David wanted to make the cake look a little more like it does in the book, so we used yellow and pink frosting to decorate it.

And, you can't have cow's birthday without turnips! So, we all created turnips in our home makerspace. They all turned out very different, but we had a blast creating them. We can't wait to have our cake tomorrow!
