Felix's passion right now is games. He loves board games. It is all he wants to do. For his birthday we decided to do a Candyland party. True, it seems a bit girly, but he loved it. It is candy, right? What kid wouldn't love it?
We are off to deliver the invitations to all the little friends in the neighborhood.
The cake was SO fun to make and really quite simple. Other than the candy road it was just a matter of sticking a bumch of candy into the cake-bam-crowd pleaser!
Candy pinata. The cellophane held the pinata together until everyone got a few good smacks at it.
Zoe made a rainbow road and the kids took turns drawing color cards (from the game) moving from square to square until we got to the different activities.
My lovely family with the birthday boy.
There were quite a few older kids there, so we assigned each older kid to a younger kid so that they would have to help the little kids get candy before they could get any. It worked out great!
Felix had so much fun! He was actually under the weather and not feeling too well. But he really enjoyed himself and didn't get over stimulated, which I thought was inevetable. In fact, one of his friends came a little later and he took her around and introduced her to everyone!!!I was so impressed!

Awesome! You make it look so easy:)
So cute! I love that you were attentive to every detail. I'm sure that all the children had a wonderful time.
Seriously, you guys did such a great job. The kids keep talking about it. (Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to let them go, I'll never live up to that.) My favorite is the candy stick lettering. Amazing!
Felix was having such a great time too. What more could you ask for?
