Happy Birthday, Natalie!! (yesterday)

SURPRISE!!!

Natalie's face as she walked in the kitchen to a sea of 40-50 faces and a big yell of "SURPRISE!"

Kaitlyn Christensen and I planned a surprise birthday party for Natalie's 17th birthday. It was sooo fun, and she was VERY surprised, as you can see by her face.

This is the beautiful (and not to mention DELICOUS) double-layered cake that carl toro made. It was yellow cake on the bottom and chocolate on the top with whip cream and strawberries in between the two and bananas and whip cream on top.

Ecstatic.


Natalie was trying to blow out the candles but they were TRICK candles! so it was never ending. Plus it didn't help that she was cracking up the entire time and out of breath.


There was a good turn out. About 40-50 people showed up! :)

Everyone loves Natalie!!


This is the card I made for the Toros in appreciation of their loads of help. It's suppoosed to resemble the cake with the candles stuck inside the chocolate covered strawberries. I'm very proud of it.
