Every year we have a Memorial Day BBQ in the backyard. Since Keira's birthday is Sunday June first we figured we would combine the parties. Yesterday we did prep work ALL day. It was fun though and Paul and Alli and Mike's parents came over to help
The prep started at 6 am when I put the pork roast and beef roasts in the crock pot to make BBQed pulled pork and beef.
Keira 's special gluten free, wheat free, dairy free, soy free, egg free, nut free cupcakes. They are actually yummy. I tasted one! They taste just like regular chocolate cake. I was going to make her a cake my self with rice flour since she can't have wheat but I got lazy and bought this mix instead.
Lots and Lots of chicken drumsticks ready for the oven. I baked them yesterday and today we will grill them with BBQ sauce.
And the cupcake masterpiece. Its covered with plastic so its sort of hard to read. But Paul, Mike and Alli frosted and decorated all the cupcakes. They are all regular cupcakes except the 2 unfrosted ones in the middle. ( those are the wheat free, dairy free... etc etc) I have to make a special dairy free frosting for those. One is for Keira and the other one is for Mr. Vegan.

Wow! God bless you! You did a lot, seems like this is going to be quite the BBQ! Can't believe Keira's birthday is this Sunday, yaaay!
Hardly believe they are turning one so quick!! We are going to celebrate with Niki's family tomorrow for Dominic's B-day on the 28th.
BBQ food looks great, except for all of Keira's high maintenance needs. How did the party go?
Thanks for a great time at the party! The food was excellent...loved the pulled pork! The cupcakes were yummy too. Happy First Birthday (early) Keira!
