TGIF...My weekly randoms!
I'm so disappointed that I have not blogged in like a week!!! I've been so busy getting ready for my grandparents visit... which I cannot express how stinkin happy I am that they are finally here!!!
I made a little Malta cookie basket for their arrival!
Grandma and I at the point with Valletta in the background... Beautiful weather!
I made some cookies for our friend's daughter's 3rd birthday party. She is a princess girl and loves pinks and purples so I tried to come up with some fun cookies for her party!
Our friends threw us a really fun going away party and I was out until 4:30 in the morning! That is an accomplishment for me! We had a ton of fun and are so grateful for all our friends in Malta. We are really really going to miss everyone!!
I have the best sister in the world. For my birthday, she signed my nieces up for a class to make me these plates. It was one of my favorite things I did when I was little (I have a plate I made too) and so I was SO surprised when these came in the mail. They are sitting on my table and reminding me everyday just how precious of a family I have!!!
I received an order the other day to make 36 cupcakes and cookies for a 50th birthday party. The guy is a huge 49'ers fan, so I decided to make football cookies.
Half the cupcakes were butter pecan with carmel vanilla frosting and a toasted pecan on top.
The other half were german chocolate cupcakes with Nutella buttercream frosting and a piece of hazelnut chocolate on top.
And then I finally finished after like 9 hours of baking, frosting, mixing, cleaning....everything. Cupcakes were in boxes. Cookies on top. And I stacked them on some crates in our pantry. 15 minutes later I heard this loud crash. It was midnight and they needed delivered the next morning. This is what I found. :( I was DEVASTATED!!!
We have a really fun weekend planned so I'll post pictures from our boating trip on Sunday!! Happy weekend everyone!!! XOXO

I'm so glad your grandparents made it safely! I hope you guys have a wonderful visit. Girl you are getting SO good at your cookie designs! I'm super impressed and wish you could make cookies for Emerson's birthday party! So I haven't talked to you since you last emailed me- are you guys going where you thought you were going?
So that last picture of the smashed cupcakes quite LITERALLY felt like a punch in the gut. I can't imagine how you felt!!!!! I showed Corey and he did the same thing "Oh! Wow! Beautiful! What? Ohhhhhhhhhhhhh...."
Maybe you should come take a trip to Georgia to make cookies and cupcakes for Zeke's first birthday :)
Miss you friend.
