Last week, my youngest nephew turned 11. We had a small family birthday dinner at my mom's on his actual birthday and then a party on Sunday at my mom's. My nephew got the new Nexus tablet... it is awesome but it only took me about 10 hours to figure it out and download some games for him to be able to play before wrapping it up. I *refuse* to buy anything not Apple ever again!
This is the awesome double-decker cake my mom made (Jake requested!).
Chocolate cake was my grandmother's specialty. Whenever you visited her near your birthday she always had a chocolate birthday cake ready and waiting. We all agreed no one would ever make it as good as she could... Why? We mentioned different things she did but realized she NEVER made it the same way (sometimes she froze it, sometimes she used applesauce, etc). We all agreed, it was the LOVE she put in it that made it the best cake ever.
