Birthday Blast

Helen's first birthday since becoming a Texan the end of last summer. Tres Leche cake for a big change....chocolate with chocolate frosting is the usual request from all the guys. I had to take the fruit off their pieces but they were very surprised at how good the cake was.

Now she has an official Texas Gal wine glass and yes, "this isn't her first rodeo" as her glass says.

Helen is the official "Jim Carey" of our family. We usually have to warn her for photos or you never know what kind of "face" will appear in the photo.

I think Helen had a good time but then so did all the rest of us. It is so nice to have her here in Texas.
