Christmas in California, Part 2--Josie is 6!

December 22 is Josie's birthday---she turned 6!! Since Cheryl was working that day I said that I would make a cake for her.  We took the kids to the grocery store and let Josie pick out what kind of cake and frosting she wanted.  Lemon cake was her choice, and white frosting with sprinkles. 

Cute comment of the day:  The day before at Legoland I had been using my cane (as well as the wheel chair) because of my not quite healed foot.  So as we were walking into the grocery store, Josie asked (in a very concerned way), "Grandma, are you o.k. with your foot?  Are you sure you don't need your staff?"  :)  Such a sweetie.

So when we got home, Evan helped me bake the cake, and when it was cool, Josie helped to frost it.

The Schenkels came over for the birthday celebration.

"Happy Birthday to YOU!!"

Blowing out the candles!

And, of course, there were presents!

From the Wissinks

From Aunt Abby and Uncle Neil

From Grandpa and Grandma

Well, this post was short and sweet.  I wasn't doing a great job of taking pictures it seems.  

Next post will be Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.  And after that, the rest of the family will make their appearance.
