My son Maverick is a little speedster. And like most little boys, he is obsessed with anything with wheels. I knew Mav would love a race car party.

Thanks to Pinterest, this post is getting a lot of attention! I've made some edits to explain a few more things in pink! Let me know if you have any more questions and I'll answer them in the comments section! Thanks for visiting! **All Sesame Street Characters and pictures for this party were cut outs from the Sesame Street Friends and Sesame Street Fonts Cricut cartridges. I found them on EBAY!*** I still have some catch up to do from the last few weeks, but I know everyone wants to see my pictures from Luke's birthday party so here they are! Luke is way into Sesame Street (SS) these days. He knows all the characters and watches it at least once a day sometimes twice. So I was happy to do a Sesame Street party for him despite the amount of work it took! Luke woke up pretty happy on Saturday morning, I sang Happy Birthday to him and he loved it. He also loved all the decorations we put up the night before and pointed to all the SS characters. Right after breakfast we let him open his present from his G & G brown. He had a fun time ripping off the paper bits at a time. When Scott pulled it out the box he shouted "car" and we put it together quickly for him to push around which he did for a good 20 minutes. It's a bubble mower so we put the bubbles in it and took it outside. He would stop and look at the bubbles when they would come out--he was fascinated. The party didn't start until 11:30, we spent the morning cleaning up and working on Luke's cake! Scott helped a lot actually--he did all the red stars on the cake. I was impressed. Working on this cake made me realize I needed more than one frosting bag to decorate a cake. Oi. We used a wilton Elmo cake pan for the shape. I borrowed it from a friend---chances are you can find a neighbor or friend who has one! We had coloring pages for the kids to color when they came in. I just googled "Sesame Street Birthday coloring pages" and found a bunch free online The Letter of the Day was L for Luke, and Number was 2 for 2 years old I made this banner. I plan on laminating it and using it for future parties. All the characters I'm going to laminate and put in a quiet book or something for Luke. Random Party shot. Scott also made the cookie monster box. This was a game they could play--I made felt cookies and the kids toss them in to cookies mouth--feeding cookie monster. The cookies are two felt circles hot glued together--leave and opening and fill with rice--then glue it shut. Then hot glue black felt pieces on for the chocolate chips! We also had them play pin the nose on the Elmo--I wish I'd had a chance to get a picture of them actually doing it. We blindfolded the older kids but just let the little ones--Luke and Isaac--just stick the nose on.I made all the SS characters using SS Cricut cartridges. It made it a lot easier, but it was still tricky and time consuming. This was another game we played in the background--"Count the Cookies" Everyone just entered a guess as to how many cookies were in the jar (a cleaned out peanut butter jar) and the person who came closest got to take home the jar! So funny and somewhat not so funny story about the pizza. We ordered it at 11:30 and it was only supposed to take 30 minutes--arriving at just the right time for the party. However. An hour later, upon calling to find out what was up, we find that the delivery guy got in a car accident! They sent another guy to go retrieve our pizzas and bring them to our house, but they didn't get here until 1:15 (the party was supposed to be over at 1). Then we opened up the boxes and found that our pizzas didn't do to well in the accident themselves! They were all squished to the side! (and they were lukewarm, not hot like they should have been) After mostly everyone left, Scott called the manager and he gave us FIVE free future pizzas. sweeeet. I love how all the kids crowd around while the presents are opened. My brother Al, his wife Stephanie, and my younger brother Steve were able to come up during their lunch break at the bike shop. (They all work at Taylor's Bike Shop in Provo) Chilling on the stairs with Uncle Derek Birthday Cake Pictures! We have a really cute video of Luke dancing while everyone sings Happy Birthday to him. I'll have to work on getting that up this week. The End!

**WARNING: Heavy link and picture post*** As I already shared last week, we had Bean's party at Gymboree. Which was a blessing and a wee bit stressful. The stressful part for me was remembering everything, packing it all up, lugging over there, and only having 45 mins to setup, EEK, I get the shivers thinking about it again. But honestly it turned out perfectly. I also mentioned last week about 90% of his party was DIY, why? because I love to. Bean is WAY into dinosaurs, so choosing the theme was a no brainer. And another no brainer for me was where to go to get the paper good made. As you know from this party and this party Kori, Paper and Pigtails, is my go to girlie for all things party. First things first the backdrop for the little dessert table. I was lucky to find large square plates at Ikea summer clearance section, $1 for 10. Then with my Joanns coupon I purchased a bifold foam board, the kind for science projects, then hot glued the plates to the board. Then to add a little extra something I added a fabric garland across the top. Honestly it took all of maybe 20 mins and cost maybe $10 bucks. One thing I did buy and not make were dinosaur masks from Oriental Trading. I loved the variety and price. :) When planning this party it became clear right away that Pinterest was going to be a BIG tool for me. So I created a "Little Dude is Turning 2" board. And one of the first things I pinned were these dinosaur tails, and knew I was going to make them as favors. The first one was not the greatest but after, oh maybe, number 5 I was on a groove and it took two days to complete 12 of them. To make the ones for the girls a little more girlie I added a felt bow to them. To say they were a hit would be a HUGE understatement. Honestly I think they made the party. Another one of those not made things was dinosaurs on the tables, which I bought one for each kiddie to take home. $1 store came through on this one, $12 bucks = PERFECT! Now back to the table. Using Kori's snack cups, which are my favorite things in her lines, I put some goldfish and homemade lemon buddies {check the back of the Rice Chex box for the recipe}, so yummy. Now I was going to make cupcakes, and when I woke up on the morning of the party and realized that would NOT be happening, a quick call to our grocery store solved that problem quick and easy. The cupcake "stand" was made with a $1 pizza pan from the dollar store, a large can from making tomato sauce for dinner one night, then taking the striped paper Kori had made for the set and gluing it all together. WHAM BAM, thank you MA'AM. Cost maybe $3. I also made Oreo Pops, cause no party is complete without them, TRUTH. Another thing I had pinned were these Cheerio Snacks and right away I knew they had to be our volcanos. So after making them and letting them cool, I took some red wiltons melting candy, heated it per the bag instructions, added it to a ziploc baggie, snipped the tip off, and squeezed on took to make the lava. They were super cute! And tasted yummo. When I pinned these dino fossils, I know I was going to make them into cookies. So after making the BEST sugar cookie recipe, rolling it out and cutting it into circles, I took a {washed} dino and made foot prints, then took a little cinnamon sugar concoction, and sprinkled in the foot prints. Baked and done. Lastly, came the dino claws. When I saw this pin, I was like "HOLY DINO CLAWS!". After making them, which I am not going to lie was NOT fun, the taste of these salty sweet goodies made up for it! For favor bags, I took just regular old brown paper lunch bags, filled them up, took one of the circles from the dino paper set and sewed the bag. I love sewing paper, its kinda of weird how much I love it. And the bags were filled with a book of dinosaur stickers, $1 bin at Target, stamps from Oriental Trading, and no spill bubbles with dinosaurs on the bottle {regular $2.49 I scored on clearance at target for .50!!} My last project was to make the birthday boy a special shirt. I purchased the shirt from American Apparel, Kori made the Dinosaur and his name and a 2 for the back. After printing onto some iron paper, he was all set to party! So there it is Bean's Dino-mite 2nd birthday party. It was super fun to plan and execute. And this little face made it all worth it! So I warned you, there was a BOAT LOAD of links and pictures in this post. If you have any questions feel free to ask away.
