Our little girl turns 9!!!!
I can't believe how fast the time has gone. We have enjoyed every minute of these past 9 years with you.
Alyssa had delicious lemonade for sale at her party. She raised $62.00 for her charity. The lemonade stand was a gift from Grandma last year and Alyssa really wanted to use it this year for her party. It was a beautiful day, a little hot at first but in the afternoon, a nice cool front came through and we were all outside enjoying a cold glass of lemonade....and of course LOTS of TREATS!!!! HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALYSSA.....WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH

DIY CUPCAKE STAND

I wanted to come up with a DIY Cupcake Stand to make for my kids birthday parties and I fell across this EASY CUPCAKE STAND. Check out how easy and quick this stand is to make.....



For the supplies grabbed some small glass candlesticks from the dollar store and some 6 inch plastic cake board circles from the craft store, $2.99 for a 3-pack. Not a pricey project at all.



Take some cute ribbon that goes along with your party and used a hot glue gun to glue it around the edges of the cake board.



To adhere the glass candlesticks to the cake board. You can use some E6000 (strong adhesive).





Just a cute, quick, inexpensive way to dress up a CUPCAKE!!!!!
