Happy birthday to the BEST mom out there! I got you these beautiful pink hyacinths. Now if only computers had smell-o-vision…
I hope you have a wonderful birthday day and I can’t wait to see you soon!!
My blog turns one year old today!!!! Time really does FLY.
What a year its been…
In December I got some much needed rest at home at Christmastime.
In January I made s’mores cupcakes and died a little at the goodness.
In February I felt the spirit of Valentine’s Day with a heartwarming little-kid love story.
In March I made rainbow pancakes.
In April my poor little computer was STOLEN, but I hit 100 posts and shared my top-secret cookie recipe with you!
In May I discovered the beauty of grilled s’mores.
In June my baby sister graduated high school!
In July I met this crab and many other sea creatures.
In August I ate the best cupcake of my life and established Wildlife Wednesday.
In September I moved to an adorable new apartment.
In October I created pumpkin cupcakes with salted caramel buttercream and everyone wanted to be my friend.
In November I made homemade oreos.
And here we are one year later, back to December, with a slightly larger waistline, a slightly larger camera, and so many {photo documented} awesome memories.
Thank you all for making this year so much FUN!
