Sponge Bob Birthday

I have to confess, I don't get the whole Sponge Bob thing, and I'll admit I have not watched the cartoon either. I was told little Brayden runs to the TV and dances when the music for the show comes on.

Well I guess I'm just as guilty. When I found out my cousin was going to make a Sponge Bob birthday cake for my sister's little one; I just HAD TO keep with the theme and make his first birthday card from me - yes it's shamefully true you guessed it - I made a Sponge Bob card.

Paper: Yoyo Yellow, Whisper White, Ruby Red, Cameo Coral, Basic Black, Green Galore, Brilliant Blue Ink: Basic Black Accessories: Assorted Punches, White Gel Pen

Brayden was allowed to stick his finger in the frosting to sample it.

However his little hands were quicker than his mom's and

he did a little more than just sample some frosting with his finger:

Then he shook his hands and there were samples of frosting and cake on the walls, window, table and floor, and his mommy too!

Our entertainment continued as Brayden's parents tried to clean up the mess. I don't know which is worst wiping up broken eggs or frosting.

Here's the clean "quick-draw mc-birthday boy"

after the washcloth came to the rescue.

Now isn't this commercialism at it's best?

The only thing that would have made this

party better would have been:

Carmel.

Mmm, Ooo-la-la!
