This past weekened we celebrated my Nana's 80th birthday! Nana is such a sweet and wonderful, fun and hip, smart and nutty, crazy,
young (but technically old) lady!

My parent's threw her a party and I was incharge of the cake.
What I came up with is not the typical birthday cake for an 80 year old. In fact, it looks more like a cake for a 21 year old, but Nana is too cool to have a boring ol' fancy cake...I just couldn't do it. I had to do a spunky, fun, colorful cake to fit her personality (atleast thats the way I see her). :)
The martini glasses were a must. Nana is not a lush, but she does enjoy a good martini. :)
She tries to get me to drink them with her, but I just can't do it.
I've tried to...more than once.
I think they look so fun and cool to drink, but I just can't stand the taste!
Me, mom and nana. My crazy uncle gave Nana 80 dollar bills all taped together. Poor Nana was so confused. lol "What am I supposed to do with all these?!!"
(I've got a couple of ideas what we could do with a bunch of dollar bills) hehehe
What an awesome cake! I can't believe she is 80, she looks a lot younger!! :)
