In celebration of your birthday I baked you a cake, just like I do all my favorite people!
Last year we made a pie in your honor...
...but this year I wanted to make sure you had something extra special so I personally decorated a cake for you.
I know you won't be here to blow out the candles, but that's okay because we probably wouldn't be allowed to light them anyways. Texas actually put a ban on all things related to your fireworks (even sparklers are out of the question) but don't worry, we're still going to celebrate... just fireless.
You're pretty special you know that? It's not every birthday that we get a whole day off from work to celebrate, so thanks :)
XOXO,
E
I hope everyone's day is filled with grilling, cold drinks and good friends!
Happy 4th of July!!

Thanks everyone! I left out the part about how the cake was originally made for someone and they never came to pick it up!! So I peeled off their decorations and made one for us :) ha

Wow I can't believe all things fireworks are banned in Texas! That's a shame :( But you can watch them on tv at least! And you can make delicious treats like these to make up for it :)
