Epic 4th Birthday Party - Thank You Pinterest!!

Ok it's official, I'm a Pinterest addict. 

I can't help  myself.  There are so many ideas to choose from.  

I loose hours when I should be sleeping browsing and pinning, and pinning, and pinning.  

Well you get the point.

Then I find all these ideas of things I want to make, then

sadly, it turns into a "Pinterest Fail"

Not this time!

Momma rocked it out!

4th Birthday

Construction Party Theme

My Dirt Cake was a huge success and delicious.

I filled a Craftsman toolbox with Cupcakes.

You can definitely find anything on Amazon too.

I went searching for a black road and of course I found it.

For only $5 I purchased this premade road and ran it around the house.

Little boys like to hit stuff.  

So this poor little Minion pinyotta was doomed to be pounded.  

I stuffed our Minion with candy and Hot Wheels and let them at it.

He lived longer than I had expected him to but in the end he lost the battle.

I purchased plastic baseball bats at the Dollar Tree to keep the kids from

hurting each other.  

The boys had a lot of energy especially after the chocolate cake.

Definitely had to give them something to throw things at.

I took a $3 tarp and cut shapes in it for a ball toss game. 

I did have the good sense to by squishy balls from the Dollar Tree to 

save the windows in my garden shed.

The following I take full credit for, sorry Pinterest.

I decided our little construction crew needed to do a little painting.

So I gave them a wall and some paint.

The rest is just messy history.  But hopefully

someday they will let their children have the same experience.

The paint was washable and the excitement in their eyes was priceless.

Check out my future little Home Depot painting associates, lol.

Almost forgot to mention that the birthday boy stripped as the 

party went on.  Ended up in his Home Depot apron and undies.

Living the Dream.

Yes, it's all clean now.  Back to it's normal self.

The kids are still talking about it.

Love it.

Epic!!!
