2 Cupcake Party!

Whew!  We've finally burst free from our ice world, just in time for Ella's long-awaited cupcake party at Miss Mamie's Cupcakes, Cakes & Such, the fabulous bakery that made my sister-in-law's froggie baby shower cake.  It was a fun cupcake decorating party for a dozen of her girlfriends from school.  I, of course, went over board with the food, and so had a ton of it left over, but between our family and my husband's it'll all be gone by tomorrow, I'm sure.  In fact, tomorrow I'll post the recipe for apple crisp we made from the leftover sliced apples (to die for!)

I only snapped this after everyone had filled their plates.  Mini quiche, crudites with dip, apples & strawberries with chocolate dulce de leche, chocolate truffles, and we also had pizza for the kids.

Miss Mamie read Pinkalicious to some of the girls while the tables were set up with the cupcakes and decorating supplies.

The girls had a blast decorating their cupcakes just like they wanted.  Funnily enough, E only decorated the vanilla one, but nibbled the top off the chocolate as she adorned.  Right now she's sharing her masterpiece with her dad, as a rare pre-lunch snack. ;)

Ella's new baby cousin Ana Sofia also made an appearance.

They had so much fun!

Mamie and her girls were so incredibly helpful during the party, they were awesome.  It's such a cute place to have a little party like this, and so convenient too.  Love it, thanks Mamie!!
