Roadster Racer 3rd Birthday Party

For my son's 3rd birthday this year, we decided to do a Mickey Roadster Racers themed party.
I was superrrrr excited for this party, as it was the very first party where we'd have kids his own age at (some friends' kids plus kids from his preschool).

He is obsessed with cars, Mickey, and more cars, so it was a no-brainer of a party theme.

Luckily, our dollar store actually had a lot of Mickey Roadster items, plus with the help of various online places (and my own graphic design skills) we decked out the house in Roadster fashion.

We had crafts (such as "Decorate a race car" and "create your own (foam) toolbox"),
 games, and more (besides food/beverages).

We had cake pops and our awesome cake made by our go-to cake gal Jacki: https://www.facebook.com/Cakesandmorebyjacki/

I promise, eventually I'll get around to putting up the printables I made, for access to those who want them on here- but I'm kind of behind on this here blogo- so it may be a bit. haha.

Our DIY "Car Wash" in the hallway was a hit. The kids LOVED running through it. Thank you streamers.

We had little race tracks we brought out for the kids to race with later in the party.

The kids had a blast. Even though it was chilly and we couldn't really go outside much, the kids seemed to enjoy themselves.

Since this was mostly a kid-friendly party, we ended up ordering pizza, besides the rest of the food/sweets. It was a smart choice honestly- since everyone seemed to like it.

He had a blast and we still have parts of the car decor up in our house (and the party was a while ago!). haha.

It’s a Luau Family Birthday Party

For our kiddo's 2nd birthday (and my 32nd and husbands 33rd birthday)- we did a combo party Luau. He is still little so we thought he wouldn't mind if we all shared a party. Now next year I'm sure we'll all be about his given theme. haha

Again, didn't do a big shin-dig like we normally do (partially due to it snowing days before, and we got busy), but it was fun to bring out the flowers, leis, and Hawaiian food.

Monster Halloween Rice Krispie Treats

So for our friends' Halloween party I took a stab at making Monster Halloween Rice Krispie Treats.

I  got inspired by by various people online's version.
*edited- here is one version more recently, that is close to the one I followed, which sadly I can't track it down- Lil' Luna's treats here: https://lilluna.com/monster-rice-krispies-treats/

I'll spare you from the recipe- as I just used the one at Lil' Luna's above. But I wanted to share it with you all to show you how EASY it was.

Make your Rice Krispie Treats (colored if you want colors), dip in colored chocolate, add candy eyes- all done!
So Easy!

They were a big hit at the party too.

I also made a few non-chocolate ones for those who couldn't have chocolate. They're just as fun!


What's your favorite Halloween treat?
