Laborbirth Day!

This year my Birthday

fell on Labor Day.

I loved everyone having the day off to play with me!

My morning started out with sleeping in until 8 a.m.!!

I awoke to sweet Birthday signs all over the house

(Thank you Mandi!)

I also awoke to busy sounds coming from the kitchen!

This is what I found!

I proceeded with a morning workout,

while my family slaved away in the kitchen

making a gourmet breakfast!

Serious good food!

serious sweet husband/dad.

Beautiful fruit and delicious veggie omelet.

My favorites.

We spent the day together-

including another picnic at the park.

This just may be a new birthday tradition!

The day ended with our "Special Cake".

Grandma Whiting created this years ago!

She really should have gone public with this

before Betty Crocker did!

"Special Cake"

includes adding pudding and chocolate chips to the mix

and topping it with cream cheese frosting.

Out of this world.

We also put applesauce instead of oil.

This not only makes it healthier,

(so we can add more chocolate chips!),

but makes it sooooo moist-
absolutely delish.

This was topped off with

homemade ice cream.

Heavenly, the best ice cream I have ever had!

A very nice Laborbirth day.
