Katie is an amazing kid with a huge heart and an even larger sweet tooth! For her eleventh birthday, I transformed the backyard into her very own sweet shoppe -- "Katie's Confections."

Vases filled with Katie's favorite candies decorated the dessert table.

Marshmallows dipped in chocolate and covered in colorful nonpareils became "Rainbow Puffs."
