Amelia's Birthday in a Nutshell

The Gift:
Hot new wheels.
So we went to the zoo to practice riding it, however we got distracted...

I guess you could say we are making a tradition of it. Amelia really wanted to ride the camel at the zoo on her birthday, but when we found out they were closed Monday's, she settled on the carousel. It's fun to see the change that has taken place in 3 years between photos.

The Dinner Request:
Tuna Noodle Casserole. Boring? Maybe. Is it her favorite? Definitely!!

and The Puppy Cake!

Amelia wanted a puppy dog cake, so I put my creative juices to the test and this is what came of it. Pretty good, huh? I was impressed with myself. I even made the cake from scratch AND the frosting. Now I bet you are really impressed! I was exhausted when the day was done, but all in efforts to make sure a little girl felt pretty special on her birthday. I think she did. Now I just need to figure out how to deal with a 4 year old in the house.
