So part of the reason I was a little tardy in posting lately is because Maya's birthday was on the 12th and I get a little carried away when it comes to birthdays.
I have already mentioned my cake obsession and as you can see from the picture this year was no exception. I think it came out really cute. The leaves were the hardest part, but the effect was amazing. it really looked like leaves. You paint white chocolate onto bay leaves or mint leaves and let it set. Then you peel them off and you get the relief from the leaves. They were really time consuming but very cool. The kids loved them.

Her party was a safari theme complete with straw pit helmets and binoculars for exploring. The decorations included a custom banner and jungle leaves. All the kids had a great time, but I'm happy that Abra's birthday isn't until July.
I also got a very cute item off Etsy for Maya. This adorable Giraffe from FinnFactor Design by Mirka Hokkanen. http://mirkah.etsy.com/
It is amazing and so well made. I have my eye on a monkey for my other daughter.
