Owen's Swedish Birthday

For weeks, Owen has been telling everyone who will listen that he is going to Sweden for his birthday. Aunt Renee made it even more special by promising him a "green cake," which she told him was a special Swedish thing. Here's a slideshow of his birthday. The Strombergs got Owen some very cool Speed Racer Legos. Hugo is a huge Lego fan (as is Viktor) and the three of them had fun putting the cars together. Owen and Hugo have been racing them. The cake, by the way, was delicious. The green rolled frosting is marzipan, and the inside of the cake is similar to a boston cream pie with layers of jam and cream. Yummy!
