Party Time: Rainbow Style

Happy Birthday Sammy 

With my youngest daughter turning 10 this year I wanted to do something a different then just cake and ice cream type of birthday party. 

Young Artists at work. I turned my dinning room into a art studio. Purchased some small white canvas and other art supplies. Placed a birthday table cloth on the table, gave the perfect space for these little artists some room for their creativity.

Did someone say Twister? My oldest daughter, Vicky and two of her good friends joined the fun as well. Watching the teenagers play Twister was a bit too funny.

Overall, I feel that the party was a successful. All the kids got to take home there mini master pieces, eat rainbow cupcakes, take some funny photos in the rainbow photo booth, and play a few games of twister.

Recipe Box: Rainbow Cupcakes

So with St Patrick's Day being today, I figured I would take advantage of Pinterest and see what new dessert I can make for my fellow co-workers. I came across this really easy idea for cupcakes.

St. Patty's Rainbow Cupcakes

Ingredients:

1 Box Cake Mix (I used Funfetti), Eggs, Water, Oil Frosting (I used Easy Frost, easy to use when you are frosting cupcakes)
Mini Marshmallows
Rainbow Candy (Air Heads Xtremes Sweet Sour Candy)

Directions: 

Bake cupcakes as directed on the box. After cupcakes have cooled, apply frosting to each cupcake. Next you place a Rainbow Candy on the cupcake, place to where it arches like a Rainbow. Next use the mini marshmallows to help keep from not sliding off the cupcake. I placed marshmallows all round the base of each side of the Rainbows. Plus the mini marshmallows look like clouds. And enjoy.

My co-workers loved them. They were such a big hit that I figured I would make these for Sammy's 10th Birthday Party (which is in two weeks).
