We had BIG plans for Alora's birthday this year! When Andrew turned five, we took him to the beach to celebrate his birthday and this would be Alora's year to go for hers. Have I mentioned I love homeschooling! This was our Fall Break week and so we headed down to pick up my parents and drop off Cookie to be boarded on Wednesday. I looked all over the internet trying to find a bakery in Gulf Shores with no success. So, I planned to pick up a cake from Edgar's Bakery close to my parents and just have cake before we left this year since everything was going to be so hectic with packing and getting ready. When I asked Alora what she really wanted on her cake, I decided I was going to have to make it--or pay a ton of money at Edgar's! I began the cake process at about 9pm on Tuesday night. What a mother will do for her kids!
She couldn't decide between a cake and cupcakes so I made both-one three tiered cake and one cupcake. The three tiers was my idea not hers. I just like it with some height. It really was a small three tier cake the pic makes it look a lot bigger. Granny sent me pans (all sizes) a while back and I am lovin' em! Alora LOVED the finished product and that is what counts.

I added some ponies because Alora loves My Little Ponies.
So my baby is 7 now!!! It's crazy! How did this happen? I am grateful for all that God has blessed us with in Alora. She has such a tender heart toward the Lord. She is memorizing His Word and loves to talk to Him. She prays the sweetest prayers. She is girly and loves glitter but at the same time she would beat you to the top of a tree any day! She loves digging for worms and wearing pink while she does it! Basketball and barrettes, Soccer and Snacks. Singing and Racing. Animals and Piano. She is truly a blessing to our family. Happy Birthday, Alora-LuLu-Wheezy-Ali Noel Thompson. We love you bunches!
