Like her loving Aunt Hannah, Eve knows how to get the most out of a birthday. She had a fun party at the park yesterday, was sung to and feted in Primary, and tomorrow we are joining with Grandma T. and Susanne for some festivities at Mimi's.
Here are some shots of the park festivities. Aunt Donna, jet lag and all, brought Grandma Mary. Susanne and Grandma Helen came too. And Uncle Noah put in an appearance. Bonny and her girls had the Ogilvie girls for a sleepover on Friday, so they were all there. Holly joined toward the end - she's here from London. The theme was Princess, and a pinata was duly shattered. Harry the Son did some stunts with his new remote control car, and we ended before the day got too hot.
I've also included the pose Eve took when I asked her to smile - I'm sure you can guess which one that is. Guess she's growing up!!
Of course, there was a Mimi Cake - and of course, I forgot to have someone take a picture of me so that you'd know I was there too!!

What a great cake idea!! I'm going to have to steal that idea for Anna's birthday cake. It's too cute and I hadn't decided how I was going to do her cake yet.
"Mimi Cakes" are Dawn's contribution to birthday celebrating at the Terrill's. Her grandma, whom they called Mimi, always made cakes with little toys and things on top. As kids get older, you can find things that relate to them - little skateboards, etc. For Harry a couple of years ago, she had a police car and some little police figures. It's always fun to see what she puts on them - we are fans!
Love the "mimi" cake. It's really creative. Happy Birthday Eve! (The last time we were there and saw her was at Porter's blessing. She was singing the ABC's as she was falling asleep. She didn't want to stop. It was really cute.)
