Remember last year when I slaved over these cupcakes for Gabe's birthday?
But my dog ate them and he had to settle for letter-less ones with Christmas foil?
Yesterday was Gabe's 6th birthday, and I was determined not to have a repeat of last year's cupcake catastrophe. I stayed away from cupcakes altogether. Instead I made a chocolate chip and peanut butter cookie cake with Recees on top.
Ta da!
Notice how far back on the counter I put it?
Notice how I kept an eye on the guilty party?
Also notice I made sure he had a distraction.
When I got to Gabe's last night, he'd already been through a full day of partying, so when I go back tonight we plan on doing some partying of our own.
Check out his insane Lego set. It's a troll castle set, and it's so big!
And while you're at it check out those smiling eyes. :)
In other news, hooray for Saturday! I slept in until 8 - that's 8am, folks! I can't remember the last time that happened, but I could easily get used to it again.
You are so crafty! I love the cookie cake! So cute.
ReplyDeleteYay for sleeping in! I actually got to sleep until 7:30 this morning! Miracles happen :)
Blue has you well trained! That looked so yummy, I wanted to eat all of it. By myself. In a dark corner.
ReplyDeleteI got up early to make Kelly a PBJ for breakfast (her request) before she headed off to take the ACTs. She's still there! Pray for her!
Love the cookie cake idea! Too funny...keeping an eye on - and distracting - last year's guilty party. Very cute :)
