Swim Meet Cupcakes



What is an Auntie to do when it is time to celebrate a swim meet for a sweet little niece?

She bakes cupcakes...because all little girls LOVE cupcakes. She goes through her paper scraps and makes girly flag cupcake toppers and makes vegan cream cheese frosting...because all little girls taste the frosting and lick their fingers first.

Congratulations Kendra! We love you and are proud of YOU!

Happy Happy Friday!

    I have a flag LOVE lately!! I have a bunch made and they are poking out of a foam board just waiting for a home.
    What a cute picture of you and your husband! I loved reading about your missionary life in Europe. :)

  4. BTW, who on earth did your adorable blog design? I love the cripness of it. It's so cute. I just took down my regular blog dress and am thinking of changing some things, but I don't know who to use. Thanks.

  10. Hello, Lisa--thank you for dropping by today. I was struck by your description of your growing up years. My husband and I have been in Christian Drama ministry for 20 years.

    I can so identify with your dear Mom! lol So often there was the opportunity to make something amazing out of something ordinary.

    Thanks again for dropping by, and God bless you, sweet girl.
