My baby sister, who graduated from high school on what seemed like only yesterday, has turned 21! Growing up... we never really celebrated birthday's, due to financial constraints, so I wanted to make this day very, very special for her. So, I drove 3.5 hours with centerpieces, candles, cutely {is this a word?} wrapped gifts and a custom birthday cake in tow.
I wanted this to be a surprise for her as I was sure that she was only expecting the normal gifts and a card from me via snail mail due to my new job and extremely demanding travel schedule. However, it is often said that love is measured by sacrifice and I wanted to show my love toward my precious little sister by making some major sacrifices in order to join her in celebrating her 21st birthday.

This is the cake that added 30 minutes to my normal travel time... I just wanted to make sure that it arrrived in a single piece and not crumbles! It was beautiful and fitting for the occassion. We received tons of compliments on it.
I truly enjoyed bringing this night together for my sister. If I could do it all again... I would.... only bigger and better! I love you Asha! May the blessings of the Lord continue to overtake you in this year!
