"Stayin' Cool in the Pool" Cupcake Tutorial {Featured in Bird's Party Magazine, Issue 5}

  It has been so warm here in Pennsylvania these past few days.  My girls and I are wishing the local pool my family belongs to would open but we still have over a month to wait!!!

In the meantime, these little cuties have already made it into the pool, AND into the newest issue of
