Friday Five!

Beautiful sunshine to replace the last week of storms, the perfect day for our Dallas Blooms mini sessions! Actually the perfect kind of day for just about anything... including our Friday Five!

Idol Gives Back
I just love this outreach by American Idol to get young people excited about donating time and volunteer hours, what a perfect outlet! And of course see yesterday's post for more on how you can get an added bonus from a donation!

NKOTB
Um, yeah.. if you don't already know what the acronym means don't even bother clicking. But if you do... can you just squeal a little with me and relive some 80s/90s greatness.

Family Fun's Cake Bake-Off
If you're looking for some birthday party inspiration this is definitely the site for you! Family Fun Magazine is having a cake contest, with awards for creativity and theme... some of these will blow you away! And they all look yummy too.. bonus!

Fairy Portals
This has got to be the cutest idea I have seen in a while.. I only wish we'd had one when the girls were younger! This woman handcrafts tiny doors out of clay that you attach onto the bottom of a wall in your house. They don't *technically* lead anywhere... but sprinkle a little magic and they are portals into the fairy world.. an entrance for everyone from the tooth fairy to St Patrick's Day leprechauns! A completely fun and creative way to give your kids random surprises and everyday magic... I just love this idea!

Cupcakes Take the Cake
I must be hungry.. another link dedicated to dessert! This is an entire blog devoted to cupcakes.. from great recipes and stores to interviews with well known cupcake creators (did you even KNOW there were such people?) and innovative products or techniques. Clearly a well-defined audience, but the blog is booming (they've even been on Martha Stewart!) and the world is sharing their love of cupcakes one post at a time. If nothing else.. it's fun to lust after! :)

Have a wonderful (sunny!) weekend everyone!
