Pictures!

I had to go back and take some pictures because I guess I was too busy before the party to do it. Usually I take pictures of everything and suddenly the party was over and I realized I hadn't taken many pictures. I wish these were all my ideas, but I found them all online. There was a lot more great ideas. A lot of kids are having Lego parties! There were some really fun ideas based on Lego sets like the Agents sets, which is Rion's favorite. Maybe next year.

Here's the invitations the kids got. I had some mailing labels that I trimmed a little then applied them to a stack of Duplo blocks. The kids had to put the blocks together to get the message.
These gift bags were 2 for $1 at Dollar Tree. I used some cardstock I had on hand to make the circles and glued them on the bags. Now they are Lego block gift bags!


I think I forgot to mention the cake in the first post! I made three cakes. The knobs of the Lego bricks are the bottoms of cupcakes that cut off and set on the cake and then frosted over them. So yeah, I made three cakes plus cupcakes. It's one of those things you would only do for your kids!

I also wanted to do this: http://chezbeeperbebe.blogspot.com/2010/02/make-this-paratrooper-softie-tutorial.html , but that would have been a little too ambitious. Plus I just ran out of time. I made a couple for Rion and he really liked them. I still have enough supplies for a good size army so one of these days I'll get around to it.
