“Happy Birthday to you!!!”

We all sang happy birthday and then presented Miss L with her giant 3 layer paradise cake. Since this was her first cake EVER we had no idea what she’d do. And I’m certain this was the most food she’s ever had in front of her at one time!

So….

She went for the one finger approach!

Dad tried to coax her on to take bigger bites…

… but she just wasn’t in a CAKE SMASH kind of mood I guess!

Nope… just one finger is good enough for her!

At that point, we passed out the cupcakes to everyone!

Unfortunately, we didn’t post a disclaimer NOT to use the straw AS a straw.

By this point, someone hit overload with still that one finger… and moved on to the playing part!

The hit of the party with the little ones was the brand new Cozy Coupe.

There was lots of teamwork going on as “assisted” rides were being given all day long by the bigger kids.

And of course there was time to play with lots of blocks too!

Ah… blocks and bows! These things are the best!
