Mama says we’re going to make a birthday cake for Papa today. It’s a good thing Mama has three mixing bowls because I’d prefer to keep this one for my hat.

While the two rounds are baking in the oven we made chocolate frosting too. I didn’t care for the taste of cocoa powder, but Mama said I could lick the beaters. What she doesn’t realize is that when she went to grab the camera I grabbed her beater too…

and she’s not getting it back…

at least not until it’s clean!

Mama frosted the cake while I was napping–I think I know why she did that! I put candles and candy footballs all over the cake and even sprinkled a few pink pigs! What a creation!

We put a special tablecloth on the dining room table and even sprinkled leaves on the table and over the cake. I think we should decorate like this every day!

Mama must have some magic in her fingers…Papa’s candles are glowing!

Make a wish Papa…and do it fast because I’m not so sure about sitting here in the dark!!

Seriously….can I eat some cake yet or what??? I’ve been waiting patiently for HOURS!!!

Mama and I made Papa a really cool Badger photo album, but somehow it didn’t make it into this picture…

and Aunt Robyn & Uncle Pete found a really cool Simon Cowell birthday card (Papa is an American Idol devotee!!)…

and as a grand finale I made everyone get up and march around the family room while Aunt Robyn played my trumpet!! Overall, I think Papa had a really good birthday!!!
