Toy Story Birthday

This weekend my little guy turned three! His birthday was on Saturday, but we had his party on Sunday. Saturday was very laid back. We went to soccer and had lunch with daddy. He was still not convinced it was his birthday. He kept telling me “No, it’s not my birthday… my birthday is coming up”! That evening we had hot dogs for dinner (because that’s what he wanted on his birthday) and then we gave him a gift from mommy and daddy. We sang happy birthday and let him blow out a candle. He was thrilled to do that. Here are some pictures …


Yesterday, we had a fantastic Toy Story themed birthday party. I was hoping for more kids to come, but oh well, what you are going to do? I had spent weeks planning this event. It was fun… challenging… exciting! I wanted it to be perfect from the games to the crafts to the cake! Everything! I may have gone overboard a little… but I had a blast doing it. I honestly can think of a better way to describe how it was then to just show you… so here are a few pictures from the party!
Yes... I MADE THIS cake!
