Birthdays Birthdays and More Birthdays

April is definitely a popular month for birthdays. This weekend I attended 2 birthday parties. Both were for Henry's niece. Little Jasmine turned 5 and baby Roxy turned 1 month. Both girls were definitely dressed for the party. Jasmine was wearing a cute little flower dress and baby Roxy a cherry printed outfit. It was a nice little party with activities like water balloon fights, hide and seek and to top it off, it ended with a pinata. It was really cute seeing the kids run around and having so much fun. I'll be sure to share a few pictures of this event.

Friday night, I decided to bake some cupcakes to bring to the party. I ended up baking 75 . Yes, 75 little strawberry cupcakes. Although this time, I didn't make it from scratch. It took longer than usual because these were mini muffins. Below are a few pictures my DH took from the night before. The cupcakes were left to cool on the rack.

Although we ended up with so much left over, Since there was so many different types of food. I definitely had a great time making them. I always enjoy baking and cooking in my free time.
