McKenna's 19th Birthday

I was so excited when I found out McKenna was going to come up to Rexburg for her Birthday weekend; I quickly got down to business planning the weekend full of activities.  I knew that I wanted to bake her a homemade birthday cake so I was on the hunt for the perfect recipe. Luckily, I found an awesome recipe for a vanilla cake (McKenna's favorite) and got to work baking it.  

I made these gems. They disappeared about as quickly as I took the picture
The puppies were excited to see McKenna 
I love gift giving :)
I'm so nerdy, but I was excited.
The cake I made! It turned out great! 
The banner on top of the cake lit on fire...ha
Deciding on a wish
YAY! 
The best part of birthday cake is the leftovers I eat for breakfast. 
Although, our weekend spent together was short and we got some sad news (more on that later) I was grateful for the time we were able to spend together.  We stayed up late with Joe talking all about the gospel and how lucky we are to have it in our lives, and how comforting it is during trying times. I love my family and I am so grateful for all their love and support.
