Sunday, April 3rd we had our big birthday celebration. Mason and Jonah turned 11 years old and Jessica, 7 years. Since it was conference Sunday we were able to have a casual morning. Jessica's wish was to have breakfast in bed. So everyone was served breakfast in bed, even Ellie. It hardly seems fair that she would be the only one not being served breakfast in bed. (The boys chose to eat theirs on the couch).
The boys love to watch the show "Cake Boss". They wanted their cakes to be decorated with fondant. I was not quite up to trying something brand new on multiple cakes for a large group. So we agreed the boys could make their own fondant decorations. I used a marshmallow fondant recipe and the kids had fun making the decor. Jonah decorated his cake in a baseball theme and Mason's was in a basketball theme. I chose Jessica's cake, it seemed easy at the time......... Enough said.
Per Mason's request, our good friend Dan, made Mason's cake. A yummy, lemony cake.
Getting ready to blow out the candles. Many cousins and friends were with us.
We surprised the kids with a pony for their party. The pony's name was Mika. Note the picture below with Ellie and Jeff. It was a wonderful snowy April afternoon :}. The kids just bundled up and enjoyed the pony.
I love my kids birthdays. Probably too much. (It seems all I do is spend time in the kitchen.) Hoping for a little sunshine next year.

Those cakes all look amazing. I seriously can't believe Jonah and Mason are ELEVEN! No way!
