Happy Birthday, Daniel!

Today is my Sweetie's 35th birthday... gosh, we're getting old! We drove to Monterey Park for a wonderful family celebration of dim sum this morning, but I forgot the camera... bummer! Anyway, Daniel spent the afternoon washing his car while the girls played in the sprinklers!


Meanwhile, Sierra and I finished up a project we started yesterday... sweet sushi! It was Allison's idea, actually. She thought we needed a theme to celebrate Daniel's birthday, and thought sushi would be perfect. Hooray for a creative daughter!

The top, of course, is rice krispy treats and Swedish fish with green fruit roll-up "seaweed." The bottom is cake, homemade lemon frosting, and "roe" sprinkles! It was a fun surprise, which he seemed to enjoy!


Now the girls are almost down, and it's time for the birthday boy and me to watch his birthday present, "The Blind Side." I have wanted to see it for a long time, and I am so excited!! (eh-hem... I mean, I really thought Daniel would enjoy it, so I got it for him! :) ) (Notice Allison wearing Papa's new shirt; so sweet!)

  2. Hey Mel! I know Family Fun does do a version of sweet sushi, but I actually just googled images of candy sushi and took ideas from there!
