Monsters Inc. Party

Phoebe requested a "Monsters Inc." birthday party this year.  It was a little hard to find Monsters Inc. party supplies though.  The Disney movie has been out now for quite a few years, but there is another Monsters Inc. coming out next summer.  (We can't wait for that!)  I was able to find some Monsters Inc. party invitations on ebay and of course my Super-Man of Many Talents-Dad, was able to free hand, with icing, a Mike Wasowski, (one of the main characters from Monsters Inc.) onto a birthday cake for Phoebe.

Eric and I tried cupcake decorating.  Clearly we should not open our own cupcake decorating business quite yet, but our girls did think that the cupcakes looked like Mike Wasowski, so maybe we aren't too bad at it.

I made some Monsters Inc. logo blue hard hats for decorations.  Both girls thought those were great.  And, I did make the large eyeballs for the stick the eyeball on Mike Wasowski game that we played.  

Thank you to Uncle Matt and Popee for making and coloring the large Mike Wasowski for our game.  It was a lot of fun!

Getting ready to light the candles on the Mike cake!

Trying and trying and trying to blow out the candles....

Enjoying the icing off the cake....

Silas had fun at his first birthday party to attend....

Phoebe got a lot of great gifts from friends and relatives.  She especially likes this soft "cotty" (this is what she calls a cat right now, a cross between a cat and a kitty).

Phoebe's little friends: Anna, Sarah, Lydia, Ian, Elizabeth, Phoebe, and Abigail

Phoebe's party guests: Dale, Nancy, Jess, Jan, Wyonna, Charles, Daddy, Silas, Ras, Anna, Melissa, Elizabeth, Johannah, Sarah, Ian, Michelle, Abigail, Lydia, Nanee, Popee, and Phoebe (not pictured, Mommy)

Some of us went to Burger King to eat lunch and play after the party....

The little girls had an especially fun time together!

Thanks everyone for coming to Phoebe's party and for her fun gifts!
