Cupcakes in CA {and a winner}!

It started off as just a fun conversation with a few bloggy friends on my Facebook wall a while back after I posted about making the newest batch of cupcakes in all my recent cupcake craziness!  The comments went something like "...oh I wish I could have one" or "can you send me one?" or "better yet, can I come out to CA and get one?" 

That last comment was the spark that led to a fun conversation about two (even three...you know who you are) friends (I've never met in real life) actually coming out to CA! Ever since that day, we've been talking about making the whole thing a reality and after a few conversations, both by email and phone, I am so super excited to say that the trip is finally official!

Both Stephanie and Amanda (and their two youngest little ones) are coming out to CA, from Wisconsin the first weekend in January for what we're calling...


Stephanie emailed me last night to tell me that the plane tickets have been purchased which makes this trip totally officiall! I am so super excited to get to meet these girls after almost two years of getting to know each other through blogging!  My wonderful Hubby will be helping me with lots of the details of things and I'm so blessed that he's totally on board with the whole trip.  He'll be helping me pick up the girls at the airport in L.A. and we'll be having the girls staying with us here at our house.

The plan is to cram as much fun into a weekend as possible and if it doesn't rain, I'm hoping to take the girls to see some palm trees (Amanda's only request), bake a few cupcakes and just have an awesome weekend!  I am so, so excited about it!

This morning I went to select the winner of my Pillsbury pie crust/baking giveaway using Random.org and I couldn't believe who the winner turned out to be...


Do you know who comment #25 was? 

It was Stephanie!

It totally made me smile after getting the whole news about our trip being official.  Pretty neat, huh?

Well, Stephanie, I'll get your info forwarded along to MyBlogSpark and I really hope everybody has a great day today!  I'm hoping to get another great giveaway posted later today so wish me luck on that!

Thanks a bunch to all who entered and Stephanie and Amanda....I cannot wait to meet you and the babies!!!
