Mattea's 9th Birthday

Today (Easter) is Mattea's 9th birthday!
She's becoming such a beautiful young lady. I am so proud of her. She's cute, funny, a diligent worker, and I can't wait to see how God is planning to use her. I am thankful He has let me have her for this time...

She made her own cake this year, which is an ice cream cake. She saw it on "18 Kids and Counting" and wanted to make it for her birthday.

Here's the recipe:
24 ice cream sandwiches (2 boxes - we use the Wal-Mart brand)
1 large tub of whipped cream
chocolate syrup
caramel syrup
Heath toffe bits (find near chocolate chips)
Directions: Line bottom of 9x13 casserole dish with ice cream sanwiches. Cover with whipped cream. Swirl on chocolate syrup and caramel syrup (however much you like). Sprinkle on toffee bits. Add another layer of ice cream sandwiches, and everything else. Then add any decorations you like on top.

I love you, Ladybug!!
