Things Money Cannot Buy - Love


Money can't BUY this cake...
This cake was baked with full of passion...
I am so touched by the generousity and love from Elin..
She is really a true Gem one can ever find....

She presented me this lovely gorgeous cake
early in the morning.. & wish me
Happy Birthday and stay 25 always!
LOL....

after singing "Happy Birthday" by my kids....
a slice is cut....

my dear, I am so sorry..
My cutting workmanship is very "ultar" ...
Sorry to "murder" your cake this way...

....because we cannot wait to eat it......
it was so so yummy!!!

Here we are... minus Andy...
Andy, we miss you here...
But don't be anxious.... about the cake...
Mama here had saved a Big Portion for you!!
