4th of July already Happened?

"We already had the 4th of July?" Seriously, I had this thought just today. It was just last month that I was browsing a recipe book, and thought, "Oh, that will be good for Easter dinner". All ready had that one too!! Where has time gone?

I did manage however to take some pictures of this years 4th of July cupcakes to help me remember that, yes, it was celebrated, and we did have a great time.

Thanks to my great sister Amy I went a little crazy with my new frosting tips...and a little crazy with the icing. But what's a good cupcake with out a lot of frosting? This was a DELICIOUS butter cream frosting recipe that I found online if you want to look it up. I highly recommend it.
