After dinner, Twyla, Aaron and Ben came over to our house (sleeping bags in tow). Michael was so excited that Ben was sleeping over. Then surprise! surprise! Twyla pulls out a pan of chocolate cupcakes. Richard starts putting paper, markers, scissors, and mini marshmallows on the table. The plan? Turn our cupcakes into pirate ships. It turned out really fun, and Rich and Z stopped in for a minute and added their own designs. Here's the debut of our pirate ship cupcakes. The snowman pirates are my favorite. ;) Which is your favorite?
Thank you Twyla and Richard!
And to top off the evening, Julie brought me some cupcakes she made. Of course I took a picture of them before eating them. They were gorgeous, and delicious. And Julie recently told me she reads my blog, so I must shout out: THANK YOU JULIE! :)
It was a great birthday weekend. I am now a-quarter-of-a-century in years. I always thought I'd feel old when I turned 25. But, I don't. Probably because most of my friends are older than me, and I can never seem to catch up.

You're not supposed to want to catch up. Eternal youth, that's what your fogey friends are giving ya! Glad you had a Happy Birthday. Are red velvet cupcakes in your kitchen's future now?
I knew you'd be eating cupcakes! Good for you! And I have to say it again: love your short hair. Like I said, I'm a big supporter of short hair, so if you are ever in doubt about how cute it is on you, talk to me and I will reassure you that you look SUPER CUTE! Happy 25th!
Those cupcakes were so cute, you guys are sure creative. Plus they were chocolate so they looked delicous! I like the snowmen too!
Wow you sure love cupcakes! Happy belated b-day by the way. I went to a Buddhist family picnic with Todd, My sister and my niece the day after my 5k race. It was so much fun. We played volleyball and we did egg soccer. It's like an egg race where you balance an egg on a spoon but while playing soccer.
Just FYI, Diana, you will still feel the same at 30, 35, 40, 45, 50...maybe somewhere along the line you will start to feel old. Mostly you just feel the same, but say, "Oh my goodness! Look at the grey hair! Look at the wrinkles! What's up with that?"
Glad you had a happy birthday!
I love the pirate ship cupcakes, we are making them for my 7 year old's birthday party right now! So fun, thanks for sharing the awesome idea!
Can I share the pirate cupcakes on my blog? You're going to say, "Yes."
