Each year Elsa and Iris get to choose what 'kind' of cake they want for their birthday. This year Elsa decided she wanted a 'sun' cake.
After giving this much thought, this is the result, which by the way, she loved.
The cake itself is an old-fashioned pound cake baked in a stainless steel bowl. The sun's rays and the clouds are sugar cookies....
There were plenty of rays for each child at the party to take home a few.
Making a wish and ready to blow out the candles.
The party was held at Wildcat State Park, and it really was a lovely, sunny, warm day.
The next day the girls and I had Nonnie day. The first thing they decided to do was to make a 'garden' in the living room. They asked me to not only make the entrance sign but to gather as many things from around the house as I/they could think of that would make this garden magical.
It truly was magical, and they played with it the entire morning.
I think the elves and the fairies were all about that day...you can see one sitting in the small chair, and another nearby.
I love the places these girls take me to.

Happy Birthday Elsa. I love the magical garden theme that both girls picked out. How fun! Elsa & Iris have such amazing imaginations and it really reminds me of my daughter when she was little.
I'm glad grandma could spend the day with her grand-girls. And that cake looks delicious.
