Graham's 6th Birthday...Everything Is Awesome!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Graham loves to play Legos!
His birthday party is based on The Lego Movie.

Fun with Dad!


The name 'LEGO' 
is an abbreviation of the two Danish words "leg godt", meaning "play well". It’s Lego's name
and it’s their ideal.
The LEGO Group was founded in 1932 by Ole Kirk Kristiansen. The company has passed from father to son and is now owned by Kjeld Kirk Kristiansen, a grandchild of the founder.
It has come a long way over the past almost 80 years - from a small carpenter’s workshop to a modern, global enterprise that is now one of the world’s largest manufacturer of toys.

The LEGO brick is the most important product. 
This is why they are proud to have been named twice – “Toy of the Century”. The products have undergone extensive development over the years – but the foundation remains the traditional LEGO brick.
The brick in its present form was launched in 1958. The interlocking principle with its tubes makes it unique, and offers unlimited building possibilities. It's just a matter of getting the imagination going – and letting a wealth of creative ideas emerge through play.

Mom made a very special birthday cake...
A Lemon Lego Head Cake.
She used a lemon cake mix and added her own touches.



For the cake, you will need to make four 9-in. round layer cakes.

Graham made his own Lego camera to take a "selfie".

Ready to make the frosting.

Evie has two sous chefs with her in the kitchen, Ceci & Grandpa.


Ceci is a chef in the making.

To match the Lego theme, a napkin holder for the party.

Dad used his carpentry skills to make the base for the Lego head.

This cake is under construction!

Keep piling on the frosting.
