Birthdays-A-Go-Go!

"Birthday Season" is finally over, and I can rest and regroup and prepare for next year! With five birthdays in two months, right at the beginning of baseball season, life at the Mortensen household gets a little crazy! Here are some highlights from this year's festivities:
Daniel and eleven friends had pizza at our house, went to Kangaroo Zoo, and came back all gross and sweaty for cake, ice cream, and presents! Twelve ten-year-olds make quite the ruckus, but lots of fun was had by all, and they slept really well that night! ; )


Livia had ten friends over for a "jewelry making party." Everyone made a bracelet with their name or initials on it, we had a cupcake line-up for the birthday cake, and danced to some fun music!

Micah's cake was my favorite--it's a small eight-inch round on the bottom, and eleven cupcakes for the pyramid-top. He loved it, which was the whole point, right?


Sophia wanted a brownie for her cake, so we did this fun and easy creation in a snap! (whew!) This is her "pickle face" (see earlier post about that)--she's such a cutie!
