Then, the night before his actual birthday he went to... scout camp! I didn't even get to see him or talk to him on his birthday because he didn't have any reception. I was sad, not how I wanted to spend his birthday but oh well. He had fun on the scout camp. When he got home Tru and I gave him presents from us and we left Tru with Mindy and went out on a hot date. It was a lot of fun!
Last weekend we went up to St. George to celebrate birthday's . Trent, his sister Anjie, and her hubby Lyndon all have birthday's within a week of each other so we had a fun dinner and celebrated.
Trent had a vision of this cake he wanted. He wanted it to be four layers with cool whip between the layers. He also wanted it frosted with ganache with blueberries and raspberries AND chocolate shavings on the top. Man alive!!! We managed to get it all done, Trent ended up doing the frosting and the decorating so that it would be just perfect... too funny. He really likes good food if you couldn't tell. So here is Trent's masterpiece cake...
And yes... it was heavenly... Happy 30th year honey!

Happy 30th, Trent!
Remember when we all thought 30 was an old man? ha! Now that my husband is 30 and I am getting close, I still don't feel like a "grown up." I wonder what age will make me feel like one...
That is one heck of a cake! At first I thought it sounded like Beverley's Chocolate Cherry Torte - but it went way beyond that. I'm glad he had a good birthday.
Happy Birthday Trent! Wow, that cake is amazing! I remember Trent made such fancy desserts for that ward activity/cook-off we had. I thought he should have won.
Happy birthday Trent! I can totally picture him putting all the finishing touches on the cake. He's so good in the kitchen. You should be glad it wasn't for your birthday that he was at scout camp. Now that would really stink!
I'm glad he had a great birthday, too bad you didn't get to talk to him on his actual birthday. That cake looks awesome!
Happy birthday to Trent. i LOVE the cake...it looks delicious.

Happy belated birthday trent!!! Hope you had a great day! Love you guys!!!
As you said on my daughters blog, you don't know me, I am touched and moved that you wrote that long comment on my daughters blog. As you will soon learn, support in any form is very comforting. I am so grateful for blogs and that Heavenly Father guided you to Amy's blog. She truly is a strong woman. I am sure you must be too. I hope you have family to help you through this. If you don't as one of my other daughters would say, that is what RS is for and they are just waiting to sign up and help. I wish you all the best, and can tell from your blog that you will be fine, you know where your strength comes from. It will be hard, but don't give up and be so kind to yourself. Don't feel guilty for any help people give, they want to help. I think that has been hard for Amy, she apologizes or used to, I chew her out in a very soft way every time she does. None of this is your fault and so there is nothing to apologize for. People love you and want to help. The big thing we have learned in that area is figure out what you need and ask for it. People will try to help, and it may not be what you need, unless they or a loved on has had cancer they have no clue what you need so you need to tell them. If Amy doesn't reach out to you it will be because she won't have the energy, not because she wouldn't want to, she is an extremely giving person. Good luck to you!
Sharon
