The Big Day!

Everything went really well. My son was SPOILED. I am so proud of my cake. I'm sorry not to have posted recently but it's been a hectic around here. The cake was designed to look like a race car. I also made sandwiches for the little ones in transportation shapes. I had Bologna and cheese trophies, chicken salad trains, and PB and J cars. Of course we had fruit salad (Yummy Yummy --Wiggles reference--heh heh), chips, and grilled hamburgers and hot dogs, homemade lemonade and soda. His party was Hot Wheels themed. Since we had little ones, we decided to make gift bags so they wouldn't feel left out when it came to gift opening time. We included coloring books, a Hot Wheels car, a small play doh set, a some race car gummy bears, some candy, and assorted trinkets like balls, noisemakers, hot wheels chalk and other hot wheels party items. I really loved making the cake. I will definitely do it again. My only issue with the day is that it was cloudy so it was too cold for the boys to go swimming. Ah, well. They still had a good time. After Mikey went to bed we ended up playing cards with some friends who had attended the party. It was a great way for me to unwind from the day.
