bridal shower for annie

My sister Maloree's friend Annie is getting married in 2 weeks- so my mom threw her a friend and family bridal shower. My mom made her a beautiful quilt using her wedding colors- and we used also used the colors for the decorations for the party. The hanging tissue paper flowers we made using Martha's online instructions- so easy! And almost free- my mom found the pink tissue paper for $1 a package!

We had salad, fruit and veggies, Vanilla Bean Cupcakes (of course!) and Cinnamon Crumb doughnuts from Banbury Cross.

Annie loved the pink cupcake apron that we gave her- so much in fact that she wore it for the remainder of the shower and and on her walk home!


Annie, Brooke and Maloree
(Brooke was my BFF for the day. She is Annie's niece- and we played hide and seek with the cats, as well as jumped on the bed! She was pretty worn out and ready for night night after that.)





Annie


Bride and Maid of Honor


Them being them- they have known each other their whole lives. Annie said that she has wanted Mal to be her maid of honor since kindergarten!

vanilla bean madness

I am so so tired. I got up at 8:30 this morning to finish baking the hundreds (yes, I said hundreds) of mini cupcakes for the fabulous Babinski's Pre Sidewak Sale Party. (it was from 6-9) I baked the vanilla bean cupcakes last night, and by the time I got up and looked at them, they had completely shed their wrappers. Odd?! Then I made chocolate cupcakes this morning. (Not pictured) So I had to go back to the store to get new wrappers for the vanilla ones, and by the time I got them to the party, they had done it again. I guess vanilla bean means "nudist" in cupcake. Mmmmm. They were delicious!

We had a freakin LINE of people at 5:45. It was like we were selling the Wii or something. And it got even crazier after we opened the doors. It was so packed, you could hardly even walk through the store!

Starbucks donated coffee, the gelato place next door donated various flavors of gelato, we had cookies and candy and juice, and OH!! the best part! Caramels. Real caramels. I LOVE caramels. Even more than fudge. If I could make caramels, I would make them daily. (I tried before. They were inedible and didn't look a thing like caramels.) They were from Avenue Sweets. (I put a few in my purse for later...shhhh)

If you are in the area this weekend, and need stuff for babies, stop on by. It's Sidewalk Sale. It's crazytown. We have some really great deals on some stuff, and we actually have good stuff left for the rest of the sale. Last year we sold out of the good stuff in the first few hours of the first day.

I am going to bed now. Need sleep to make it through tomorrow.....

unicorn wishes

We had a bbq for Mal's Birthday/4th of July. Her birthday was on the 2nd, but since everyone worked late that day, we decided to get together today.

This is the FIRST 4th of July ever (that I remember) that was not blasting hot. So after dinner we all went outside to swing on the rusted swing set.

Mal got a new camera from my parents- so ALL of us were taking pictures of each other! Even Loo-loo, see her pink fisher price camera in the photo? I love it!

The unicorn theme was hilarious. Loo-loo was disappointed that Mal wouldn't let us break open the unicorn pinata. But we had plenty of cupcakes to satisfy our family of sweet-tooths!

And the unicorn figurine that I got for her came with a stand and 4 different, equally cheesy backgrounds. Mal was such a tomboy when she was little, that we never had any girly themed parties for her. Well, I guess late is better than never!Posted by Picasa
