you say it's your birthday...

happy birthday to you...
{i have that beatles tune in my head tonight}

probably because today is my sister jen's birthday.
yeppers. the baby in the family is 31!
now i really feel old. {thanks for that sis}

i was looking for a pix of a pretty baked good to send
to her this morning and i found this crazy cute cake.
it's perfect for a girl who loves sugar and DONUTS.

via

















the cake i had baked for her wasn't this fancy schmancy,
but it was baked in a bundt pan and it was going to have white glaze
frosting dripped over it and presented to her on a pretty white pedestal.

unfortunately she didn't get that cake.
i couldn't get it out of the bundt pan in one piece.
{i ended up just tossing it}

the birthday girl didn't go without something sweet.
she got donuts from her roommate, and i picked up some gourmet
cupcakes from the bakery. she enjoyed a raspberry chocolate one.
YUMMY!

we had a nice evening together, eating {too much}and celebrating at the station,
a casual neighborhood eatery in south park.

not more than 2 minutes after leaving the restaurant,
scoutie asked if he could text auntie jen and leave her a birthday message.
{c let him text me a few days ago and now suddenly he's 5 going on 15}.

i suggested he CALL auntie jen and leave a message so, with a little help, he did.
he told her she was the best auntie in the whole weeeold and then said XOXO.
she really is.

birthday photos coming tomorrow. just need to pull from my cell.
