Our weekend was a whirlwind of a weekend... but somehow by the grace of God and through the grace of my amazing Mom we whipped together a Monster Truck bash for my Lil Man. I actually spent many weeks prior to the party, planning and organizing... but as most of you would agree... there is only so much of that you can do. So since we were going to be out of town in Portland, my amazing Mom finished putting together the party food, cake and even finished off our party favors (custom made Monster Truck Sugar Cookies)... I had made the decision weeks prior that I wanted to give Monster Truck shaped sugar cookies away as party favors... and since I wanted it to be custom made... I asked Larry, who is an awesome craftsman, to make a cookie cutter. And so he did. They turned out amazing. I used my favorite sugar cookie recipe and yummy cream cheese frosting... So on Friday, my Mom and I made a test- batch to test out on the family. It was a hit!
And from there my Mom spent most of Saturday assembling the party food, finishing new batches of the sugar cookies and even baked and frosted the birthday cake so that when I returned home Sunday morning all I had to do was decorate it! Then it was party time...
Lil Man loved his Monster Truck Birthday Party! And at the end of the day... isn't that the goal to any party? It was so fun celebrating him and including everything that he loves right now... one being Gravedigger! Good times!!! Just love this little man to pieces. Can't wait to enjoy his year of being 3 with him!!!
