The Birthday Boy
// 11.26.06 // Filed under: My Son
Wow! We had fantastic weather and an awesome party for L today.
We had a “Medieval Knights” theme. Upon arrival, each child received an inflatable sword. They ran around outside for a bit, then we served lunch: a medieval meal of roasted chicken, hunks of bread, and grapes… and, of course, pizza! After lunch, we had games. PHAT Daddy hid several items on our property, then created two lists and a treasure map. The kids divided into two teams and had a treasure hunt to find everything on their lists. Next, we had a “test of skill.” It was a relay race in which the kids had to run down the deck, take a toothpick out of a small block of styrofoam (which I was holding), then pop a balloon (we had two columns of balloons attached to pieces of wood), put the toothpick back and run to tag the next person on their team. Finally, the kids had to slay the fire-breathing dragon – a pinata. The games were a huge success – the kids had a blast.
We did cake and presents a little later. Our castle cake came out terrific. Here are photos of the birthday boy and his cake.

I totally wish I had known the theme…we have an 8-ft inflatable dragon (don’t ask!)
The cake looks wonderful, and it sounds like a fun time was had by all! Wish Luke a happy 8th birthday!!
Oh, wow! I’ll be 26 on 12th November next year. Can you plan my party please?!
Can I just comment and tell you that you totally ROCK! What an awesome party! I can’t wait until my son can have cool theme parties like that! This year it was his 1st birthday ~ not too exciting as far as planning goes…but a success none the less!
Great job! Awesome cake!
Wow! Looks like so much fun! I really really want to plan a party like that for my oldest son for his 6th birthday. Maybe you can help me with ideas.
Your little guy is sooo adorable. Happy 8th!
WOW! that cake. I am so jealous. Clearly you understand that you are now my hero, right?
My hubby and I made a cake similar to that for my dd’s 3rd birthday but it didn’t look nearly as great as your did. WTG!
My birthday was the 26th, but I definitely didn’t get a cool cake like that!
