Let them eat cake….here’s to the weekend
Because when three kids share a birthday, the cake better be good (and easy).
Hi Friends,
Every June, we celebrate not one, not two, but three birthdays on the same day—our twins and our oldest were all born on the exact same date. I know, it’s completely nuts! A little chaotic, a lot of fun, and honestly still feels like a miracle every time we light the candles. Over the years, we’ve landed on a few favorite birthday cakes that are simple to make and guaranteed crowd-pleasers: a rich chocolate one, a pretty-in-pink strawberry one, and a moist banana one that might just be my secret favorite.
Banana cake with Greek yogurt frosting - this is the cake we started with from when they were little. Freddie loves bananas (so much) so we continue this one, it’s soooo good.
Chocolate cake with frosting - better than any box mix! Great for a crowd. What I love about this cake is that you can decorate it with any little toys/candles so it can be easily customized.
Pink strawberry layer cake - a naturally pink colored cake for our little princess.

Personal Stories
I went to visit my bestie in Charlotte, NC with Frankie this past weekend. It was so fun and just such a wonderful weekend! I got my ears pierced at a place that had registered nurses do the piercing, it didn’t hurt at all, it was marvelous! She convinced me to start Forth Wing. Then I came back and after summer camp took the older 3 to see How To Train Your Dragon, it was great! Dragons and magic everywhere!
