so my sister-in-law is amazing when it comes to decorating cakes. a few weeks ago i was asking the boys what kind of cake they wanted, we saw this dragon one and they were sold. it didn't look too hard to do so i said okay. anyway, after talking it over with erin it was decided we'd have two dragon cakes and erin would come up and help me. i got the cakes all cute out to the shapes they needed to be, frosting mostly all over them, then erin made them look like this....
they turned out great! the boys loved them and i think everyone else thought they were pretty cool too. i counted last night and we had 15 kids, 8 adults, and 1 dog there. it was a blast! william and jonathon love their cousins so much.
here is the lighting of the candles, being sang to, blowing out of the candles...

their cousin jerusha made them this cool pinata. after many tries and no success william & jonathon let their cousins have a turn also. finally it was syrus who broke it open. it was full of malt balls, which also broke all over the ground. it was funny!
thanks to everyone who came and celebrated with us! also to everyone who couldn't come celebrate!
today, the 16th is william and jonathon's actually birthday. i made them some shirts with the number 5 on them. jonathon wanted his with tiger stripes, that's when i decided not to make them the shirts. then i found this fabric i thought it would be fun. they had gymnastics this morning, donuts from our favorite bakery, got balloons, and spent some of their birthday money!

You have 2 5 year olds!!! I love those cakes--awesome! Sounds like they had a fantastic birthday. Wish we could have been there!
gosh, you made their birthday so fun! I love the shirts, and those dragon cakes were amazing. You are such a fun mom.
I cannot believe they are FIVE! Wow. Time flies! The cakes look AMAZING and so much fun! Nice work, Ashley! :)
I love your blog, you are too clever to hide all those talents. I loved it the other day when you walked into church. Your family is so darling, all your boys with folded arms, shirt tucked in, belt on (what's a belt) it was just so sweet.So happy to find your blog:)
Cutest dragon cakes I've ever seen! What talent. Looks like a fun party.
Your boys are looking so grown up! I can't believe the twins are five.
Those cakes look fantastic!
Oh man, those cakes turned out AWESOME!! Good job Ashley and Happy Birthday boys!!!!!!!!!!
see the cakes turned out great so you CAN make cakes for their other birthdays :) Next time you can go solo :) It was fun, but we won't bring a dog the next time we come up...although the boys said they wanted him to come it really wasn't a good idea... see you monday erin
Those cakes are fantastic! Way to go! It seems like just yesterday all our kids were in nursery together. Where did the time go?
Ahhh they already look so much older from when I saw them last! We haven't been gone THAT long have we??? Loved those cakes, they were absolutely awesome!
