All Aboard!!

This weekend I had the pleasure of coordinating this fun Train Party that included tons of bright colors, fun activities, and special touches for our sweet friend, Evan.   This sign greeted party guests at the front door... Party snacks were set up along the buffet like a train, each snack with a train inspired name. These adorable little candy trains decorated the tables. The birthday banner was a huge train I cut on the Cricut... too long to get in one picture! These train labels from Parties by Hardie were PERFECT!! They come as a pdf file so you can print as many as you need! I used them for the water bottle labels, and tags for the train shaped chocolate candies, the train cookie favors, and to decorate various galvanized tins around the party. Love, love, love these labels!! The cupcakes were wrapped in train themed paper and topped with fondant trains from Sugar Robot on etsy.com Party favors included these train sugar cookies that I made. White chocolate molded train candies I made {and somehow managed to get to the party before my little Jake ate them all!!  Silly boy learned how to push a chair around the kitchen to reach up and grab the good stuff!}... And these party bags for the kids! Inside each bag there was a model train kit, a wooden train whistle, and a train lollipop, along with some other sweet goodies. It was a fun afternoon for all of the guests who visited Evan's train station!! And now it's time to move on from trains and on to rockets... my own little man is turning five VERY soon!!
