Durand Eastman Adult Cake Smash ~ Lauren’s 40th Birthday
My dear friend Lauren just turned 40. When you have six kids and home school, it’s easy to lose yourself in the shuffle. It’s amazing that she took some time out to do a few celebratory things for herself – like an adult cake smash!
Somehow I missed this trend, but apparently adult cake smashes are a thing!
Lauren is a jack of all trades – she sews, she has a work bench, she can do painting and tiles and cakes and all the things. She’s a skilled ASL interpreter (though jokes that she “retired” when she had kids). She also loves performing, so this theme was right up her alley.
She found an old tree at Durand Eastman Park that matched her elf/Tolkein theme perfectly. Her husband, knowing her affection for Lord of the Rings, had a hobbit cake made (which they said also tasted amazing). She saved the hobbit hole topper for a Tolkien themed non-cake smashing part. I asked her if she was going to eat it and she said slowly, savoring every bite.
You’re amazing Lauren. So thankful to have you in my life!!!
