We were at a family reunion (more on that later) in the Outer Banks, NC so we had 24 other people to celebrate with us! My parents had to leave on June 16, so we had cake and ice cream the night before. We had a rainbow chip cake with rainbow chip frosting with rainbow sprinkles (Do I need to spell out the theme?). Aurora is actually a very neat eater. After I gave her a bite so she'd know what it was, she started picking off crumbs one by one. Greg had gone inside so I ran to get him so he could see her eat it. When I returned, her face was covered in frosting. Had she decided to dive in? Nope. Uncle Mark, my brother (under the direction of Aunt LaDonna), had smeared frosting across her face. She eventually got the idea and started taking bigger handfuls, but the ice cream was just too cold to encourage her to eat it with her hands. I can't believe she's 1!!!
The pretty cake. HUGE thanks to my mom and sister Kimberly for writing on it. I need more practice!
