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.)
Welcome to the party! Imagine I’m greeting you at the door in a fabulously enviable outfit, with my hair and make-up salon-fresh. The party music is going and the place smells like cake with out a speck of dust in sight. Immediately, your eye is drawn to my amazing decorations and perfectly-styled spread of every…
I started on my Easter wrap-up posts. I have them about half ready for you, but then I just ran out of time. (Here’s a sneak peek and what I’ve been working on). Have I told you about my April? Well, after hosting Easter, we had a garage sale last weekend, my daughter’s birthday and…
…and Michelle at Everyday Celebrating is our Grand Prize Party Party winner for the Awesome Airplane Birthday Party she put together for her son’s 2nd birthday. Here are some of my favs from her very cool party! You can get all of the details here, and here! I want my other finalists to know that…
Our astronaut birthday boy needed a birthday cake that was out of this world so we landed on the moon as the perfect cake for the occasion. (get it?) This is a strong contender for the easiest cake I’ve ever made. I’ve used this Wilton Sports Ball Pan Set (affiliate link) for all kinds of cakes–except for any…
OK. I promise this will be the last post about the Nancy Drew party, but I had a fun time making these thank you cards, and thought I would share. I bought this line-up set from Oriental Trading Co. and used it to take pictures of all of the girls at the party. I cropped…
Many of you were excited about doing some thing like the “30 sucks” gift I sent to my sister and posted about last week. Blogging friend, Susan from Poca Cosas, left me a comment and it reminded me that I had seen lots of growing old gifts on her blog. I guess she and most…

Kendra – those are darling! What are the ears made out of? Chocolate frosting? Way cute…
Mindy
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:
