:: C's Birthday Party

To celebrate C's 7th b-day, he invited a few friends from his class to come over. It seemed like a good idea at the time, but I quickly found that 5,6,7 year-olds have very strong opinions! It is amazing how 4 of them can quickly exhaust you.
Despite that, it was a successful party and C had a wonderful time.  I captured some moments below...

 Playing Wii.  Argish didn't know what to make of these obnoxious creatures...

And of course I had to experiment with a cupcake recipe.  I got the "Hot Chocolate Cupcake" twist from Kevin & Amanda and it was pretty good!  I didn't have to worry about icing the cupcake and it saved some time...which has been of the essence these last couple of days.

The straws were a special touch for decoration, even though the kids wondered "why are straws stuck in the cupcake?"  Oh well, I had fun!
