Our friends Alex and Alyssa threw a fantastic Fourth of July party yesterday afternoon where a great time was had by all. I hung out with good friends, met some new friends and together, we all ate a lot.

This incredible cupcake was courtesy of Stace, who said they were from a mix, but you really couldn’t tell. They were amazing.

THEN, Alyssa who is ever the wonderful hostess, busted out the dessert bar. Desserts of every shape, creed and color. Cake pudding, anyone? Sugar cookies. Fresh fruit. More cupcakes. I was in heaven. And I ate a lot of it. >blush< I’d hoped to take a photo, but I think I would have bitten my own hand off.
