Logan's Birthday Party

Logan had his birthday party Friday night. We had his 2 favorite foods- pizza and treats (cake and ice cream). He had so much fun eating which is his favorite thing to do! He wasn't too excited about opening his gifts but he is enjoying them now that they are open and out of the packages.

Logan's favorite gift- he couldn't wait for Grandpa to put it together.



I saw a similar cake idea on my friend Audrie's blog and FamilyFun.com. I could not find a dump truck I liked, but I found this cute wheelbarrow. I thought Logan would have a great time pushing this around the yard. I decided instead of doing "dirt" in a dumptruck I would do it in a wheelbarrow. At the last minute I decided to add gummy worms to the dirt and that ended up being Logan's (and the other kids) favorite part! The "dirt" looks gross but is actually chocolate cake and frosting with mashed oreos on top.

Holy cow - we are on the same brain wave or something! I put gummy worms in Cash's too and I think we got him the same little car!!! That's totally weird.

I LOVE the wheelbarrow idea. I ended up using two different dumptrucks because the biggest one I could find wasn't big enough. But it turned out o.k. too - Cash had a little one all to himself, not that he would eat it or anything!!!

Can you believe they're 2?!
