Violet’s 3rd anniversary party
Our party was a success! We gave out almost 60 little goodie boxes and I took home 6 cupcakes out of 48+ that Cindy brought in today. She also made little orange and cranberry scones, blueberry scones and lemon pound cake. We also served assorted munchie-snacky things, iced tea and my Mom’s famous spa water.

I got to the shop at 10 minutes until 10. I think it is impossible for me to be early to anything. We barely got started setting up and people were coming in! After everyone realized they were edible, Cindy’s cupcakes were flying off her little cupcake stand. I really think she did an amazing job with them! :) (everyone thought that they were candles because they looked so perfect!)

Our little giveaway boxes were very well received… I think we may do this again :)
We got a lovely surprise from our friend Patsy who brought up the most fragrant lilac bouquet! Thanks Patsy!!! |

Rachael, was of course, picking out something green :) I tried getting more photos of friends at the party but everyone hid behind a wall, counter or floral arrangement… some ducked. *sigh* I will get you all on here… soon! hehe |
| “Spa Water” has become a tradition at all of our events. We usually slice up citrus fruits and add mint leaves or strawberries, plenty of ice and pour water over it all. It is so refreshing, looks great and it’s easy to do! |

Thanks to everyone for making our birthday party so lovely! :) We are so glad you could come share a cupcake with us and celebrate! |
I love planning events but I always forget how much work is involved! I’m exhausted!!! Many thanks go out to my Mom and Cindy for all their help and hard work today! I better get an early start planning our Halloween party… a late night witches’ tea party! If you go to just one of our parties all year… this is the one to be at ;) I’m going to bed now! phew!

I was so sad not to be there! I wanted to be, but I had to work and couldn’t find a replacement. I do intend to visit soon, though ~ it looks like such a lovely shop!
