Cy is TWO!!!!!


Cy's 2nd Birthday Party

So we decided to do a car themed (not Disney) birthday party for Cy. I had so many ideas, but his birthday always sneaks up on me, so I didn't get to all of them. I did get my favorite idea accomplished though. We made a motor Speedway in the back yard, and cars that all the kids could wear. I am super proud of how it turned out.

They played with the track for a couple days after the party. I think its something I would do again for fun. I bought a bunch of boxes from home depot for $.74 each and then solid wrapping paper (I could not find red anywhere). I wrapped the boxes best I could (not as easy as a thought that part would be) and then hot glued circles for wheels and head lights.

You can see I made a paper plate into a steering wheel with a paper fastener so it could spin. It was several trial and error runs to find out where to put the ribbon but I ended up punching a hole for the ribbon to go through and then tying a knot in the back to secure the ribbon to the box.


Evie is doing a test run for me. For the road I used Week Block and yellow duck tape. We secured it to the ground with camping stakes .
I also forgot to get picture until after the party was over but I made a sign for above the food and put black table clothes with yellow duck tape out too. Sorry they aren't the best pictrures.

Then we partied...
