Valerie had her birthday on Saturday, so naturally we had cake for breakfast! I got an angel food cake (I know, I am a slacker, I should have made it myself, but lets not dwell on my short-cut.) and made fresh whipped cream to smear all over the cake then I filled the center with fresh sliced strawberries and decorated the edge with more strawberries. It was a very tasty breakfast!
Then she opened her gift from Amol...
a violin! She was so happy, and truly surprised! She couldn't wait to have Matt help her tune it and give her a lesson. She took it to church with us the next day and watched with much excitement as Matt assembled, complimented, and tuned her new instrument.
MMmmmmmm, cake for breakfast...oh goodness! But it was healthy though, because of the strawberries, right?
ReplyDeleteToo exciting! And I love how Sam is sneaking in for a bit of cake-topping amidst the excitement. :)
ReplyDeleteYikes, I do look like Tevje! What a fun and great birthday it must have been!
