Okay sorry for the delay in the post. On Tuesday we had our own little family birthday party. We hid the presents and made her find them
And for dinner I let her pick her birthday dinner and of course she chose Spaghetti and Garlic bread.
Then Friday Night we had a sleep over with Chloe and Zoey. We slept out on the trampoline. I stayed out there until Mace woke up at around 3:00am ish, and I must have fallen asleep, and the next thing I know the kids are yelling "Help us, we're dying!!! HELP..... Someone...." So I went bookin it downstairs to find that well lets just say I forgot to turn our sprinkler system off, so they got a wet awakening! 
Later that Morning Chloe M. Came over and joined in on the fun.
Okay so then our family was on Sunday. So after showing Jada all these cakes she still insisted on her purple dragon. Saturday night I started by cooking 2 cakes so they could cool while we slept and kinda give me a jump start for tomorrow. Sun. morning came and I cooked 3 more (yes that is a total of 5!) I had the dragon frosted pretty much for the most part with a couple of finishes, the eyeballs in the marshmallows for the eyes and the spikes, and sprinkles and it was a done deal. It was coming on around 3:30 and I went into the bathroom to wash my hands of all the frosting and this is what I came back to find.....
Oh yeah it tipped over and poor little Jada says "mom, look my dragon is sleepin'" oh I was livid. I said some choice words, called Dan at work, called my sister Em, and said some more bad words because at this point I had no Idea what to do people were going to start coming in a couple of hours and I had NOTHING ready. So with the help of my sis, and Dan coming home early and Stuart watchin' Mace I was able to shower, and put together this flip flop cake. The flip flops are actually the size of Jada's feet. Kinda a fun fact!!! Considering the time I had I think it turned out just dandy!!!

what a fun party, that is great you hid the presents, you are such a fun mom. i love the flip flop cake, you did a great job. how fun to have a sleep over on the tramp, and you being the trooper and staying out til mid morning. im so excited for the game(and to have my shirt)!
Sounds like Jada's party was a hit! The cakes turned out well! That is a fun idea to hide the birthday presents.
My access code is Huppi. I would love to check out all your pictures. I know i love the one of Jada on Jeremi's blog. I think it just worked perfectly that her bracelet is turned just right so you can read her name! Your girls are darling and i love how you call them sassafras!
I just knew that she was destined to have the flip flop cake. Super Cute!!
The cakes turned out GREAT! I wish I had such talent.. How fun, Jada is sure a cutie!
I love the trampoline/sprinkler story. There is nothing wrong with a "sleeping dragon," just not as wild as one that is awake, but the flip flop cakes are great! Your girls are beautiful and you and Dan do a great job as parents. Thanks for letting me sneak a peak into your lives.
What a great idea to hide the presents and drag it out more. seems like it always go to fast. I'm going to steal that.
The flip flops turned out darling I"m impressed you attempted a dragon.
I had a hard time choosing my favorite.... I love the storyboards with their names but they are spendy.... I did like these ones as well:
