Cupcakes & More

April 4, 2011 by Aliesha

This past weekend we went up to VA to help my mom celebrate her 50th birthday.  We had a really fun ladies brunch/tea and I am so excited to share some pictures with you! 

We had CUPCAKES – oh, so many cupcakes!  

We had raspberry…

…lemon (filled with lemon goodness)…

…and triple chocolate! (And not to sound too braggy, but they all tasted as good as they looked!)

We ate other yummy things besides just cupcakes, such as fruit, fluffy orange dip, veggies, mini quiches, ham biscuits, chicken salad sandwiches, pomegranate tea muffins, and blueberry streusel-topped muffins.  Of course we had tea and coffee to drink!

Here’s a pic of me & Mom…

…Vera and her Mimi…

…and all four generations!

We decorated with tissue paper pom flowers…

…and with tulips in teapots.

I made Mom a corsage to wear.

We sent our guests home with individual cherry pies (displayed in a wicker picnic basket)!

 
 

I’ll end with one final cupcake shot…because I can’t help it!  Cupcakes just might be my new favorite thing to photograph.

Have a deliciously sweet day!
