Happy New Year – My Dad’s Birthday Cake and Well Wishes for 2013!

By Lyndsay // Coco Cake Land

My dear dad celebrated his 69th birthday on December 17th… and it has become customary for me to make a DOG CAKE for him every year! Words could never describe how much my dad means to me, and how much his love and support of me has meant, especially over this past year. Dad, you are always there for my sisters and I, and now our children, too. You are such a kind, generous, amazing and hilarious dad. We love you lots!! And here is GLS with a very excellent perm and tuxedo at his brother Randy’s wedding in 1975 (pictured with his mom and his own dad, in the background!)

The world is nothing to me without my family, and I am the luckiest person to have such an amazing family. And now I have a little one, too – my baby Teddy! How sweetly his little cousins love him and care for him already, it melts my heart. It’s amazing how much love a little baby can bring, and how having Teddy in my life has given me the strength to be myself again. My heart is bursting.

Happy happy new year everyone! Let’s ring in the sparkly, wintry bright arrival of 2013, and look positively towards the future and all of the amazing things it can bring!

Lots o’ love from cake land and see you in 2013!
