The Big Birthday Party

We had a beautiful fall day for the boys birthday. We did our usual cupcakes at the park with friends. It was a blast, and I love the sweet simple nature of birthday parties up here, but I think next year I will have to get a little more creative...
Charlie inspecting the chocolate cake....not so sure about it.
Griffin loving his cupcake (not really).
The spread including apple cake made from apples we picked ourselves at a farm in Maryland. We somehow ended up with 60 pounds of apples, but that's another story...we have had applesauce, apple pie, apple cake, apple muffins, apple tart, apple pancakes (the favorite), apple juice...you name it, we tried it.
I borrowed my friend Shellye's idea for '2 Peas in a Pod' birthday party, and this is the picture I modeled the cupcakes after. As you can see, I was a bit rushed and they turned out like nothing this beautiful. Oh well, they were delicious!
