James was three yesterday. His party was lovely, even if some of our guests could not come due to Snowstorm THOR. Bum Bum BUM! We ( great now I can't get the bold off) got ten inches of snow. But enough people live on our block that we had invited to still have a very nice time. James has been feeling very left out and middle child lately, he kept asking with his presents "my OWN playdoh? My OWN dinosaurs?" And I was like oh baby, I know honey.
He is such a lovely and mischiveous child. We did a Rudolph theme per his impassioned request.
We made Rudolph cake pops, they took HOURS. We had to bake the cake and mix it with frosting and shape it like a reindeer head(ish) and chill it and dip the stick and chill and do the ears and chill and dip the head and do the antlers and chill and do the snout and eyes and smile and then wrap them. MERCY. They were beautiful and we are all that is glorious but NO WAY would I make them again. I would do a round one, but not a shaped one. Ok. If the kids are in school and big browned eyed James said please, I'd cave. JUST FOR YOU Mr. Pickles.
Scott made a huge deer sized reindeer from cardboard and hung it on the wall, complete with red nose. I made reindeer chow and 8 pounds of meatballs( because red and round like Rudolph's nose?) and buns and a fruit platter and a pepperoni( red and round) and cheese tray. And then ice cream cake. THANK YOU FOR WANTING ICE CREAM CAKE I AM TIRED. We had a huge custom banner and giant card board cut outs ( from his aunt) and streamers. And Christmas music. Because you are so special my darling. The jam in our family sandwich.

I saw the cake pops and thought they had to be really time consuming, but MAN they turned out awesome. I loved the updates throughout, it looked great.
Thanks! I won't lie, I'm about half dead today.
they took at least five hours.
