Happy Birthday Grandpa Wilde!

I've got a bunch of fun pictures to post of the fourth of July festivities, but I can't find the little hookup thing for the camera, so I'll do things a bit backwards and post the pictures I took tonight on my cell phone camera.

We had a surprise birthday party for James's Grandpa Wilde tonight. James and I made this cake, as Grandpa is a big baseball fan:


Here's Grandpa blowing out the candles:


Here's James's little cousin Mia - she just loved those flowers, kept picking them up and dragging them all over the yard. Cute, cute girl.


And lastly, here are Grandma Wilde's night bloomers: we waited very patiently to watch them bloom before our eyes. It was an amazing sight, and then when they were open they smelled so beautiful. Just gorgeous:

Oh what fun! Sadly enough I didn't know Grandpa was a baseball fan. Your cake is totally awesome. Mia looks so old--I can't believe how much she has grown up since your wedding. Thanks for posting pictures.

Cool cupcakes! Looks like they turned out well.

That cake looks so cute! I especially love the mountain of cupcakes with all the candles--impressive! Sorry we couldn't be there, we had a bday thing for Elliot at his friends' house.

where did you take the pic of you and James by the rocks at the top of your blog? I love it.

Are you kidding me? I still can't believe how talented you guys are with sugar-based products!
