Lils is 7!


My Lils is seven. I can't believe I have a seven year old! Lils is the best little girl and big sister anyone could have. She always wants to play with Rose and help her and get things for her. She is the little girl at the park who takes her little sister up and down the same slide for an hour and a half. Or who will push her in the swing all day. She's the kind of sister who will always bring Ebay home a little craft she's made at school that says, "I love you". She the type of big sister who will share a brand new art canvas she got for her birthday with E so that he can paint too. She is kind, loving, loyal, athletic.. oh and CRAZY! She is silly and funny and is always trying to make up a joke, or she'll tell you the same one over and over again. I love my little Lils. happy Birthday, sweetie!


We went to a bouncy house with her cousins for her birthday and then ivited the neighbor kids over for a pinata and the biggest cake I've ever made! Lils wanted a candy cake (shocker) and so I went all out! The base of the cake is made from a 12 inch round cake pan, so I made two homemade chocolate cakes (the "perfectly chocolate cake on the back tof the hershey's cocoa can is the BEST). The middle layer is a 9" funfetti cake and the top is strawberry. The whole thing was put together with homemade chocolate frsoting and covered in pink buttercream. Then I went to town with reeses cups, kit-kats (my fav), skittles, m&m's and frosting! It was super tasty and fun.
