Family Reunion


June 24-June 27th Normy's Family came in from Washington, Puerto Rico and Texas. 13 of them total! We got to spend a few days with them. I was so excited about meeting his family that I thought it would be really cool to make them a Puerto Rican Flag out of cupcakes! Thought it would be a nice to welcome them and and get them to like me right off with sweets!

We had a really good time with them! Ate a LOT of Good Puerto Rican food. I want this Recipe that is Aunt makes where she cooks a pork Roast with a bottle of wine. Don't think I will ever get it, cause I think its all up in her head, Not written down anywhere.

We also went to the Renaissance Festival. I hadn't been in so many years. The last time I went I didn't really care for it, But this time it was awesome. Really enjoyed myself. Will Defiantly go back!

We also played UNO with them and they have there own little Crazy, Puerto Rican way of playing. One game lasted for like an hour or so. But it was a really good time and Whenever I play UNO I will play the way they showed me, because it makes it WAY more fun!!!

Jamie Cakes

My sis in law made me this cool book to help a cupcake business I am hoping to start. She made me the book here: http://www.heritagemakers.com/435447
I thought it was really sweet of her to make me a book. If people want to see my cupcakes or if I even need to bid a proposal, The book is perfect! Thanks Tara!!!





Bronwyn's Recital

June 5th was our niece Bronwyn's Recital. 2nd year in a row for her! 2nd year that I went. I made cupcakes last year and Tara asked me to make some this year. I think it will be a new tradition for Bronwyn's Recital to have Jamie Cupcakes. I was able to get a video of Bronwyn too. My camera doesn't take pictures too good far away in the dark. So I did a video. I knew Tara would love it! Normando was camping for the weekend, so I was the good aunt and went and supported Bronwyn for the both of us!






TJ Renames Cupcake to Buttcake...

So Fawn got Married May 27, 2010. I was a Bridesmaid and Normy was the Photographer. But (Of course) I helped take pictures too!






























































Reunion!

The month of May was like a Reunion month for me! I got to see my old High School BFF Heather and then my other BFF from High School April had a get together and I got to see her and an old friend Allison and April's Sis in Law Amy who I was really close with after High school. April Just moved into a new house and wanted to celebrate her being newly divorced and Happier, and Being able be free! She also was celebrating her Birthday as well. I made cupcakes and Salsa (of course). It was GREAT to see April. I had been really good friends with her since 10th grade. We did everything together, from getting our belly buttons Pierced at 18, and going to Mexico together, to her teaching me to drive a stick shift, and "Looking" for Guys. I actually introduced her and her ex husband (guess I didn't do too good of a job). I also got to see April's Mom, who I was close with also. When I got in fights with my mom I would always go to Aprils. Sometimes I would stay the whole weekend at April's house. Her mom and I had many talks about my home life and how My mom and I didn't get along. She got to meet Normando, and it was funny because she laughed at the fact that I was married. Because I would always say I would never get married. It was great catching up and Reminiscing about old times and the crazy, stupid things we would do as youngins...
