The Birthday Party

Yesterday was the big party and we had lots of fun. I ran out of time to do everything for it, but at least I got the cupcakes frosted on time, so I guess that's good enough. Having to watch two 1 year olds while mixing frosting and cake decorating isn't a good idea, buy hey, what can you do? Sometimes I need to step back and not be so freaking creative, but I can't help that I'm so gifted ;) See these cupcakes? I went around holding my cupcake asking people "How awesome are my cupcakes?" I used Marshmallow Buttercream frosting and is the best I've ever tasted on a cupcake.



Evan and Amelia had a great time playing with all of the cousins. They also got to visit with their Aunt Evelyns (Great and Great-great-great!).

Here are pics and videos of them eating their first frosted pastries. I thought that they wouldn't know what to do with them because I've never put any food that big in front of them. By the middle of singing Happy Birthday, they figured it out. I guess we all do, and the sugar addiction begins. I read online that I should be making carrot-whole wheat cupcakes with yogurt frosting and was like, I don't think so. That's way to new-agey for me. I would have liked to get them side by side, but we forgot their high chair trays. We always forget something.
