Drive-In Birthday Bash!

Kyler's 6th birthday was celebrated with a drive-in movie theme. We had cars, treats, and popcorn all befitting of a backyard drive-in theater. We didn't even let a little bit of rain scare us away or damper our fun. There was a lot of friends and family gathered to love on Kyler and I know he appreciated every bit of it!!His cake - a tub of buttered popcorn (actually lots of cake rounds stacked up, covered with white frosting and fruit-by-the-foot stripes, Twizzler writing, and marshmallow popcorn)! One of the easier cakes I have made, and quite possible one of the cutest!!The candy counter was stocked with TONS of goodies to treat ourselves to.The popcorn machine was ready to go - everyone really enjoyed the fresh popcorn!The cars were set out and the decorations ready to out on.There was just a short burst of rain right at the beginning of the party so the car decorating had to be brought inside. It was totally crowded (and a bit chaotic!), but we still got all those cars detailed and ready to roll.We had all the traditional movie refreshments...hot dogs, nachos, and soft pretzels! Yum-yum-yummy!!!The kids all got together and parked their cars to watch the movie...too fun! The kids were so creative with their car designs!We watched Cars 2, which conveniently came out the week before.The birthday boy with his cake. I do hope whatever he wished for comes true!!
Me and my big kid!! Wow 6 years old, Kyler the time has flown by!
