My sister, Shanda, made these adorable cupcakes for her daughter’s first birthday. I believe she just used m&m’s and some string tips (correct me if I’m wrong, Shanda).
Anyway, supercute. (And I like the serving plate, too.)
I had a request for ideas for a hunting-themed birthday party, so I will share what I have come up with. First of all, I have to tell you that in my searching, I learned something new. Did you realize that hunting and camo are popular themes for weddings? I kid you not. I know…
As I am starting to get ready for my son’s big astronaut party, I thought it would be fun to share some of what we did last year for his 3rd b-day…A construction/truck party. Going completely against my nature, I bought invitations this time. This was only because the invitation was the exact concept I…
So it’s actually Saturday, but close enough. This post is originally from Feb 18, 2009. It’s full of great ideas for an Academy Awards style party, or any awards or movie party! For more current ideas, I’m loving this round-up from Not Just a Mommy: (image from Everyday Celebrating) You’ll also want to check out…
It’s about time I share the pictures from my daughter’s Perfect 10 Day Spa Birthday party, a couple of weeks ago. I’m going to have to break it down into small parts (since there were so many details) if I am going to get through it, though! We’ll start with the invitations today! If you…
This fun rustic looking keg, could be fun to use at lots of parties, right? But wait… It is CAKE! Almost the entire thing is edible, and what’s crazier…it actually works as a keg! This masterpiece was created by my good friend, Kim’s mother, Terri. Here is what Kim wrote about this cake: Mom just…
Each time one of my children has a birthday, I try and get creative about what I can bring into the classroom for school treats since our school doesn’t allow homemade goods. My oldest daughter’s birthday lands on Earth Day and last year, we used that as our theme for the entire celebration. I’m working…

Hey Mindy! How are you guys? Don’t you have a blog somewhere?
Yes. I think the ears are just chocolate frosting. She confided that she used store bought frosting, which is nearly a sin in our family since our mom was always a “from-scratch” woman, but it is nice to be able to cut corners every once in a while. Especially in the name of cuteness!
Ack!! Those are adorable. And I’m all about the store frosting. When it’s on sale for $1 a can, you can’t make it cheaper. Ü I buy a bunch and put it in our food storage closet, along with the cake mixes that were on sale for $1, too. I think that may have to be our next themed party! (2-year olds don’t get a say, do they??)
Kendra – We are all doing well…and I do have a blog:
