Happy 4th Birthday Max!

Today was Max's 4th birthday. He's been asking almost daily when his birthday is going to get here for the past 7 months now. He REALLY, REALLY wanted to be four!
I took him on a date so he could help me pick out the ingredients for his cake. He chose an orange juice cake in the shape of a race track. Orange juice? Yes, Max LOVES orange juice and also loves race cars so it was the perfect cake for him.
Here Max is placing the race cars ever so carefully on his orange juice -race car track cake.
The finished product. I love making my kid's cakes. It's become a tradition for me to make the cakes myself and this was one of my favorites...good idea Max!
We had Max's family birthday party at Backyard Adventures in Draper. Julianne (my sister-in-law) works there so we get to have parties there often. Thanks Julianne for the hook-up... we always have a lot of fun. We won't mention the fact that I almost got eaten by the huge deflating dinosaur for the second time which is nearly impossible to do...so random!

Happy Birthday Max! I even thought of you on your special day as one of my friends turned thirty and another had a baby. I guess the 21st is getting kinda crowded.
But don't worry, it will always be your special day!
