SPRING BREAK and ITALIAN CREAM CUPCAKES

So it's been a busy spring break even though we didn't really go anywhere or do anything...how does that happen? We did have a couple of sleepovers, went to the park a couple of times, Mia swam at my dad's house, we went to Mr.Gattis which is a pizza/video game place here in Lubbock. I took the kids to Adrenaline City which was a Blast.




It is at Bodywork's here in Lubbock where we played Laser Tag, jumped in their trampoline room and Mia walked the ropes 12 feet up on their ropes course. It has been a really fun week. To end it all my husband and I left the kids for a relaxing night with our best friends (wine and crown) and our other best friends Kristin and Justin (hahahahaha). Got a tad hammered and had some good conversation!





I also have had a hankerin' for some baking. I don't want to eat it because I have been losing some weight, but I REALLY want to bake...like everyday! Maybe I should try my hand at baking and selling. I definitely need to get a little better at presentation though.
I decided to try my moms favorite cake, Italian Cream Cake. I found a great recipe on Pinterest but decided to try it in cupcake form so that I could give them away and not sit and eat an entire cake myself (though to date...I have had 3 cupecakes!!)
Everyone was raving about them so I thought I would share the blog for the recipe...enjoy!!
