Surprise!!!

My mom turns 70 this year! We surprised her by telling her we were getting together for a be-lated party for G-ka's 16th birthday. But we were also celebrating her! Happy Birthday!!

Jessica lights the candles on her multi-level cake.
Quick! . . . I don't know how long this cake will last with 70 candles all a-flame!
(It sure lit up the room.) :)

Mom's cake.

Inside Jessica's cake . . . RAINBOW layers. Fun!

Checking out snapshots of the wish-making, flame-engulfing, candle-blowing moment.

As everyone bustles busily around her, Mom takes a moment to enjoy her cake . . . and the wonderful chaos of a Hamblin gathering.
