Christmas in July

Today I received a *surprise* package in the mail from my Aunt Connie! It was filled with adorable goodies (see below) and included a note: "Happy early birthday and Christmas in July!" So cute!

My two favorite things: cupcakes and CHRISTMAS. 

Just in case I need monthly cupcake inspiration :)

And some sort of teeny tiny cupcake gadget. Quarter to show size. It had Japanese writing on it? Maybe it belongs to Hello Kitty.

I got inspired by the Christmas in July theme and decided to play Santa to myself, with a little jcrew.com early birthday shopping spree. Among other things, I emerged with these two fancy headbands:

Thanks, Aunt Connie! You made my day!
