Sweet Sixteen

If it's your birthday Mom is quite likely to be hounding you with a camera. Seriously. Mom!

Melanie made her own cake. Again. It was made with almond flour. And had an amazing caramel sauce. And the following Sunday we had a gluten free guest over, coincidentally, so we were able to serve leftover cake. :) :)

The final product, and the baker herself. Sixteen already. Don't forget, that means I can go in for my driver's license. :)

Opening gifts from the family at coffee time. (We never have to wait for Philip to come home from work anymore, since he's always home!)

Sixteen already! Melanie is a young lady already. Very helpful. Very crafty. Lots of fun. So thankful to have had another year with her.
