Celebration...

Last Thursday was Seth's 14th birthday...so what better excuse to make for a celebration?
It's become a tradition that every year the boys wake up to balloons and streamers hanging from the light in the eating area. It's the first thing they see as the come out of their rooms and head to the bathroom!
They wake to find a bouquet of balloons and a pile of presents. In Seth's case this year it was a small pile as he asked for a new cell phone. And he got it.
The other tradition is cupcakes. We are hands down a cupcake family. Yes, we love cake and pie and other sweets. But the favorite? A good ol' cupcake.
Cupcakes make us happy. I am powerless when it comes to a cupcake. Especially a yellow cupcake with white frosting. Oh my goodness...
They were really, really good, too.
