The Birthdays

Luke's mom usually does a birthday dinner for everyone in the family. Because Luke and Lily's birthdays are so close we celebrate theirs together. Today was Luke's 30th and Lily's 2nd was on Wednesday. Luke got his annual 'make your own pasta' dinner with the cakes provided by his sister, Becky. She makes the cakes for all the birthdays because she has elevated it to an art form and they are always very impressive in looks and taste. So, here are some pictures of our day.

Luke's Cake: chocolate-peanut butter brownie with chocolate ginoche--heaven!

Lily's Cake: individual bunnies with white chocolate tops hand-painted by 'the master' (with help from her husband, Charlie--I have to give him credit because I did almost stab the man with a knife today :)

Lighting the candles

YUMMY!

When I look at you and Luke together with your different eye coloring its no wonder that both Lily and Noah have such beautiful hazel eyes.
