**Update: Alex's cool friend, Kristle, just posted pics from this party on FB, so I am stealing one of the now-bride to replace the boring one I originally had here. Isn't she beautiful?!
I wanted to share the garland I made, courtesy of a free alphabet download, a sweet song, pretty ribbon and "soda-pop" paper.
For dessert I made strawberry-limeade mini-cupcakes, peanut butter cheesecake with chocolate drizzle, cookie-dough truffles, dulce-de-leche cookies and lemon icing thumbprint cookies.
As the guests headed out, they each filled up an orange box with a sampling of their favorite desserts from the night. I found these boxes at Michaels for $1.29 a piece! Well worth it to send these yummies out of our apartment.
This week is going to be another crazy-fun one: two birthdays, mother's day and a wedding. In the meantime, I don't want to leave you hanging like I have been. Each day this week, I will post one recipe from this party. Alex's wedding pictures soon to come!
