Throwback Thursday

Posted on by

This week takes us back to New Year’s Eve 2010. As has become tradition, Matilda, Amanda and Megan spent New Year’s Eve together. This was the year that they decided to spend their last moments of the year making a giant cupcake. I have to say that starting off the New Year eating a giant cupcake is a pretty good start.
