We made it to our warm, Southern destination EARLY this morning and are completely exhausted, but had enough energy to make a birthday cake for Jesus. I let the boys help decorate (maybe not the best idea, looking back). So, in future years our cake will be prettier. Thanks, Kristi for the idea.
We made a chocolate cake to represent the dirtiness of our sins, white icing to reresent the purity that covers our sins, a green M &M ring to represent the everlasting love of God, and 12 candles that represent the light that shines in us 12 months of the year. I decided to wait to make this once we got to TN so that we could have others help us eat it. But, after the masterpiece was complete, no one was eager to dig in. I can't imagine why?!
Shelf has straightened up in the last week and was allowed to make the journey with us. He found his way into Santa's sack today.
