Jake's Birthday

Jake turned 6 on 09-09-09. The Saturday before we had a party at the pool that we are members of. We had it in the evening, and lucky for us we had a big heat wave that week and it was pretty nice weather. Jake wanted a Tom and Jerry birthday cake.... my kids' favorite cartoon. This cake was really fun to do and is completely edible. Tom and Jerry are made out of rice crispy treats and fondant. I couldn't find a Tom and Jerry pinata, so we went with Sponge Bob... another favorite cartoon. Then I realized half the kids at the party are probably not allowed to watch Sponge Bob- (it really isn't that bad!! I find him funny and less crude than my husband). We did smash Sponge Bob to pieces, so that sent the right message.
Jake is a great little boy. He loves swimming and video games. He is quiet and a character. We think he is the best! Happy Birthday Jake.
