Gracie's Turns One!

Well, actually, she turned 3, but here are the pictures I never posted from 2 years ago.  :)

In case you can't figure it out on your own, I went with a cupcake theme.  I got all my plates, cups, and napkins from here: http://www.birthdaydirect.com/1st-birthday-cupcake-girl-c-33_3373.html.


 


I made cupcake pops. Mine aren't nearly as perfect as the cake pop master (bakerella), but not too shabby for my first (and last) attempt at cake pops.  I took pictures all along the way so I could make some wonderful tutorial to share with you, but let's get real here.  I'm posting this 2 years late.  So just see the original tutorial here: http://www.bakerella.com/make-your-cupcakes-pop/.

 


 

 
 The peruvians brought the colored coconut balls and sweet prunes.




 
China, Ceci, and Abi made Gracie's adorable cake with a giant cupcake on top
(which will make another debut later on).
 


 
It's not a peruvian party without a pinata (learned that the hard way on year).


 


 
After we sang Happy Birthday we gave Gracie her first cupcake ever.
