This has been a long, drawn out birthday for Miss Erika! :)
Her birthday was on Father's day, and we had a blast over the long weekend going to Galveston Beach.
But her main birthday gift had not arrived on time!
We decided to make her cake yesterday, but because she requested a "Chocolate Coffee Cheesecake" we cooked it yesterday and ate it today!
So here is the saga of the birthday gift! :)

And it turned out to be an auto part! :) LOL
OOPS!
So yesterday, we made her cake and let it cool overnight! She wanted a Chocolate Coffee Cheese Cake which turned out rather wonderful by the way. :)

FIFTEEN CANDLES!


And then today.... ANOTHER package arrived.... I thought the box looked rather large... but hey.... we couldn't tell who it was from: SO she opened it:
It was a T shirt she won from a contest she entered! LOL
The anticipation was palpable!
Poor sweetie has scrapes on her hands from a nasty fall today. :(
It finally arrived! It is an Ipod Shuffle with her name engraved on it. In purple! :) I think she likes it. :)
