Happy Birthday Nolen & John

Today is Nolen's 6th birthday and John's 30th birthday. We celebrated their birthday last night here at the house. Trevor was sick so Jamie had to stay home with him. John had requested Make-Your-Own-Pizza and I knew Nolen would also like that. I made Nolen a Monster Truck cake. This is the first year I have had the pleasure of making him a fun cake. After he saw all the fun Trevor & Mitchell had with their cakes, he asked me to make one for him. Of course Grandma is going to do what he asks. :) I have so much fun making their birthday cakes.

Lesson learned from Trevor's Monster Truck Cake. You will not be eating that cake. It will be destroyed. So, I made John a giant Oreo Cake and Nolen a smaller one, with ingredients that wouldn't bother his allergies.

The Birthday Boys

Good job Nolen

Mitchell with his bestest buddy

Craig & the birthday boy

He was pretty happy about his cake.

The beginning of the destruction

This was the funny part. When they first started playing in the cake, Nolen got some chocolate on his finger and wanted a wet towel to wipe it off. Notice Mitchell is also looking at his hand.

At first they were real careful not to mess up the cake

but soon,

it was demolished. Mitchell decided he needed to clean the tires off.

What a mess

Shelby dove right in

Final result!!!!!
