Red Velvet Cupcakes

My new favorite flavor!

Mmmm...YUM!

Look how good these came out!

After being at my new shop for a week straight I decided to take a break last night and bake :) I hadn't made cupcakes for a month probably. That's not normal for me. Haha! So believe it or not Ive never tried the famous red velvet cupcakes. I decided to give it a try last night and bake them myself. Oh my god!!!!!!! They were soooooooo good! I loved them! 10x better than chocolate cupcakes! Plus they are bright RED so that makes them even more fun! If you haven't tried them already, please try them. They are delicious!!!!!!! If your lucky I might make them for your next party. Haha :)

Sienna & Mateo's Candyland Birthday Party!!!!

Okay so I'm finally getting the chance to post all the pics from my kids Candyland/Sweet Shoppe Birthday Party! Sienna turned 4 and Mateo turned two. I am forced to have 2 parties in one because my cupcakes are only 1 day apart :( The 5th and 6th of January!!! Yikes, right after Xmas too. Well here goes a really really long post of pictures. But I must share because I spent so much time and energy into this party to make my cupcakes happy. Who doesn't enjoy a party surrounded with candy and sweets???

So let's start with my cupcakes party outfits...arn't they adorable?? I got Siennas petti skirt at Studio 365 while we were in Disneyland a few weeks before the party. Her shirt I made myself by ordering the rhinestone transfer online and ironing it on her shirt myself. I picked up a cute long sleeve at target for like 5 bucks. Mateo's shirt I ordered from a cute little etsy shop online.
These invitations were a little creation of my own. Although I couldn't throw them in the mail I was able to just hand them out. Which I didnt mind at all because I thought they came out so darn cute!!!
Here is my tableware that I chose. I had to pick something neutral for a boy and girl so I thought striped and polka dots would be perfect for a candyland party! I picked up the napkins and plates from Party City and wrapped a candy bracelet around each napkin and fork.
Here is my adorable wreath I made out of a huge bag of dum-dum lollipops! I picked up a huge bag at walmart for like 6 dollars. Can't beat that for this adorable wreath! I basically stuck each dum dum one by one into a styrofoam wreath that I picked up at Michaels. The bow and label I made myself :)
Here is my entry way table as my guests arrived. I made the sign with one of my cork boards I had laying around the house. I cut letters from my cricut and stuck them on the board. I even painted the frame of my cork board to match our theme.
Here is one of the banners I made. I used greeting cards I picked up from Homegoods on clearence and I tied them all together with cute ribbons!
This is one of my snack tables I put together.
Look at my adorable cupcakes!! I picked up the polka dot liners at Michaels and I made the cupcake toppers myself. They tasted yummy too!
One of the lollipop topiarys I made.
I loved the way these came out!
Ok so you won't believe I didnt even get a good shot of my candy buffet. I was so bummed I could have cried. I spent sooooo much time and effort into this station and I didnt even get a frontal shot of it. Whahhh :( But at least you can get a idea of what it looked like. Ha!
My little niece Alana :)
This pennant banner I also made myself on my lovely little cricut (my bff..hehe!)
OH MY GOD....have you ever seen soooo many gift!? Thank you everyone!!!!!!!!!! We love you :)
Ahhh here are my cupcakes blowing out their candles!!!! Too cute!
Here are the little favors I gave out, mini gumball machines. I made the favor tags myself and attached them with ribbon :)
I just put this together randomly and stuck in on a little table. I had extra lollipops and I used this little tree I had from xmas :) Isn't it kinda cute?
Take out boxes to fill up with candy at the candy buffet, YUM! I picked these up at party city for only 99 cents each! Colors were so bright I loved them!
A closer look at my centerpieces :)


Hope you enjoyed these photos...I had so much fun putting it all together! Happy Birthday Cupcakes!!!! Love your little Martha Stewart Mommy :)

Me & pretend tattoos!!! Hahahaha!

Someday I will get one :(

Beauty is skin deep.  A tattoo goes all the way to the bone.  ~Vince Hemingson

Today my lovely little friend Lorena got some new ink! Isn't it beautiful?! Each of the flowers represents one of her children. I love tattoos and I respect the people who get them. I hope someday I can stop being a sissy and get one :(
To me a tattoo reflects a deeper personality. When I see a tattoo; I get a feeling in an instant. The meanings hidden in tattoos may be plain or hidden. Dark or light. Black and white or in full vivid color; like marking a stage in your life…moving you into depression or personal power, you pick.
Tattoos are beautiful :)

The beautiful artistry of tattoos!

Pampa aka my dad and the cupcakes enjoying some ice cream!

High five "pampa" (my dad/grandpa) for staying home with homer (Mateo) while I sadly drove alllll the way to Fremont to pick up my car from being in service. I must to say I actually did miss my silver g-ride. Hahaha! They had my car detailed in and out and filled up my tank. I don't think it gets better than that :) I definitely give Fremont Lexus two thumbs up!!!! Yay!!!

Check out me and Bieber!!!! Hahahah!

Personalize funny videos and birthday eCards at JibJab!

Good morning from me and Mr Mateo

Rise and shine! Me and the big homer just got back from taking sissy (sienna) to school and a mini trip to target. Just got a call from the dealership my car is ready...whahhhh...that means I have to take my black beauty back......I'm so sad....

Yes I felt cool for a second there....haha!

Ok so when I get super bored I go thru my pictures and I had to post this. Mr Tito Ortiz, whew whoO!

Yes this is really Tito Ortiz, the ex UFC fighter. While out in Vegas for UFC 100 last year we happen to run into him coming out of our hotel. I had to ask him to take a pic with me. Then I was like Jenna who? Hahaha!

First we're sweet & then we're sour!

Can you see how bored we are?! We are waiting for our yummy pizza in the oven to be done. Big Homer is sleeping so we have a little peace right now....haha!

Our favorite....

Lunch will be ready in 15 minutes :)
