this is the cake we made for chet's party.
no.
it's not.
i wish that was the cake we made.
that was the cake we planned on making.
i found it on a blog. and the blog said it was easy.
but the blog is a liar.
ours looked like this.
and somehow it managed to get uglier with time.
we served it to our guests looking like this..
yup.
it was embarrassing.
but despite how homely it looked, it tasted dee-lish.
and it makes for a funny memory.
we will try again for chet's next party.
and the next.
and one can only hope that we improve over the years.
chet didn't actually eat any of that cake.
on his real birthday we fed him a cupcake.
just so we could say we did.
and so we could take the classic 'first birthday cake' pictures.
anyways, we are so pleased with how well chet's party turned out.
matt's parents were INCREDIBLE. there is no way we could have pulled it off without them.
larry ran a billion errands for us.
and maralyn stole all the kids at the party and played with them the whole time.
i'm quite confident when i say that i have the best in-laws.
and our friends were great too. we are so happy that they were all able to make it.
chet was one popular little leprechaun.
