Cupcakes!!!

Just wanted to share some cupcake ideas that I found while wandering around the internet.  These would all make great birthday cake alternatives for your child's party.  Cupcakes are so much easier to serve and clean up after.  They might even inspire a theme for you!  

Dr Seuss Cupcakes

Farm Animal Cupcakes

Cowboy Cupcakes

Robot Cupcakes

Jungle Safari Cupcakes

Paris Party Cupcakes

Garden Flower Cupcakes

Owl Cupcakes

Hawaiian Luau Cupcakes

Circus Cupcakes

Halloween Pumpkin Cupcakes

Of course, if you don't have the time or inclination to make or purchase these kind of cupcakes, cupcake toppers are always a great option!  They are easy to use, and although I love the look of the cupcakes I posted above, a lot of them use fondant and I'm not a big fan of the taste of fondant.

Happy partying!

Second Post!

OK, I probably can't keep titling my posts like that.  I'll try to think up a better one next time.

It's still the Fourth of July, but I wanted to share my Seuss party that I finally finished today.  You can see it on my Etsy site: Seuss Printable Party

But here's a quick preview:

Also, my daughter made some cupcakes to celebrate the 4th.  She had a little trouble with the frosting because it's like 111 degrees out.  I like this one the best:

But this one's really cute!

Here's a pic of a bunch of them:

My pool filter has not been working, so I had to take it apart, get some parts and put it back together again.  It's working great now!  My green pool is finally a sparkling blue.  So, I think I'm going to take a break and go swimming now.

Happy 4th (again)!
