life = 4 x 12 {April}

I decided to take our April picture in front of our current house. I thought it was only fitting since this is the last full month we'll spend in this house. You can see all of our family pictures here.

Rainbow Cupcakes

We made rainbow cupcakes the other day and they turned out awesome. I started with a traditional boxed cake batter and divided it into 6 bowls. Add food coloring to each bowl. Then we scooped 1 scoop of each color into a muffin tin. My cupcakes turned out very, very full. Almost a little too full. After they baked I added a buttercream icing and a few green sprinkles. Tada! They were tasty and very pretty to look at.

Muffin Tin Monday {Cool Pineapple Tray}

Muffintinmom.comOk, so I know that "technically" Muffin Tin Monday should be in an actual tin. BUT... I found these adorable Nibble Traysand I just love them, so I thought I'd share these. I found these on Amazon and they are SO worth the $7.99 price tag. They are dishwasher safe and the little dip cup area can be frozen so that your dips stay cool. We will be using these a LOT this summer when we go to the zoo and other adventures around town.

life = 4 x 12 {March}

I just realized I never posted our March family picture for my little project this year. This picture was taken on a spring break trip to the beach. I got the idea for this project from the lovely Tara Whitney.

Rainbow Craft...

I know I've been a little absent lately, but I have a really good reason. We're moving! And what does a random rainbow craft have to do with your move you might ask??? Well, I've been cleaning out our craft closet and Cole and I found a ton of little scraps. I had him sort them by color and then drew a rainbow on a large piece of paper. He had a wonderful time gluing them down in each of the colored sections.
