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.)
This is they hybrid sleuthing notebook I made for the Nancy Drew mystery birthday adventure (full report coming, later). I got the idea from Emily Giovanni’s blog. Credits are listed on my gallery at Little Dreamer Designs. The notebook was on clearance at Target, super cheap! I’ve also thought about using this idea for mothers’…
I think I mentioned that my son turned 6 this weekend. We decided to postpone his robot birthday party for a couple of weeks (and were able to take a fast but fun family getaway), but there was still some celebrating to be done! On Friday, I took goodies to his class at school to…
Wow! You guys made judging tough this year! I’m so glad I called in the pros to help. There were more than twice the entrants than we had last year. They were all amazing. I’m so excited to see so many of you taking delight in doing something memorable for the ones you love! Your…
I have posted several fun Father’s Day ideas on the blog over the years. I think it is because men are a bit like big kids and it is easy to pick one of their hobbies or interests and create a whole theme around it. Last year, we celebrated my husband’s love of fishing with…
When discussing what my daughter had in mind for her birthday party, this year, I was surprised to learn that she really wanted a piñata. We have them sporadically for birthday parties, but she hadn’t had one for a couple of years and decided there should be one at this party. Of course, with a spa…

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:
