We had a little birthday party for Andres today – we invited a few friends and family around to help us celebrate his first birthday.
After a cool start to the day, it turned out to be a glorious afternoon and we had afternoon tea out on the back lawn.
Leanne out-did herself with creating decorations for the back yard (with a lot of help from her sister, Bron). But the best part was the cakes Leanne made – one was a plain cake iced in the shape of the map of Colombia, and the other was a pair of chocolate cake logs placed together and iced to look like the Colombian flag.

What a lovely story… I have been reading your blogs, I’m from Cali, and loved learning from my city from another point of view. How did you decide to adopt two beautiful babies from Colombia? I have been away from Colombia for almost 20 years and miss all of them crazily. (I live in Miami btw)

The cakes do look great, hope they tasted O.K.
