Birthday parties are always unbelievably thrilling to Youngest Daughter (as they usually are to all little children!!) . . . something to be thought about, dreamed of, planned for. And this birthday party was the most special of all . . . the birthday party of her best friend. I'll call her Chinababy because that's what we've called her since the first picture arrived at her parent's home and we all knew that really, really, really the H's were going to get a baby all the way from China.
Chinababy's birthdays are always a girl's wonderland . . . with themes like "fairies" or "ballet." This year it was butterflies. And what little girl doesn't love that bright, elusive, winged creature!
The partygoers even got to try out the joy of "being" butterflies . . . or at least of feeling the freedom of wings upon your back.
What a fun cake! A stack of soft pink cupcakes instead of the traditional round cake cut into 12 wobbly wedges.
Sparkly pink sugar, pastel nonpareils, malted strawberry milk balls atop creamy pink frosting . . . a butterfly's delight!
Yes, Chinababy, this cake is for you. Happy birthday Best Friend.
Then the little butterflies flitted off to the garden, where they are happiest, to swing and ride and feel the soft warm sunshine on their wings.
It looks like a dreamy day!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the soft edges of your photos - do you use photoshop or a filter?
