Well... YAY!! we survived another Birthday party. We celebrated Jacksen's 6Th Birthday on the last day of school. It was the day before his actual birthday and it just made sense to do it then. We also joined forces with his good buddy Kyle, who also turned 6 (their birthdays are 2 days apart) We invited the entire kindergarten class since we were having the party right after school at the park (which is connected to the school, so they just walked straight over) The rest of the school didn't get out for another hour and a half so we had the park completely to ourselves.
It was GREAT! I made Pizza cakes (complete with candy toppings and white chocolate "cheese") to go with our theme of pizza and water guns.
** I've had a number of requests re: the pizza cake. I used a 14" round from wilton (takes 2 cake mixes) bake at 325 for 50-55 min. Used choc. frosting mixed with red food coloring. Use shaved white chocolate for the cheese. Use real fruit leather (in the produce dept) in cherry and use a small circle cookie cutter for the pepperoni, sliced fat black jelly beans for the olives, sliced up green jelly candies for the peppers, and white ones for onions. I halved malt balls and placed them like sausage. Any other fun candy toppings you can come up with. You can always get a pizza place to give or sell you a box and round cardboard to put the cake on. Enjoy!!
The pinatas were destroyed in a matter of minutes and all the 30+ kids scrambled to scoop up the loot!! It was a great ending to a wonderful school year for the kids. Kyle and Jack had a blast celebrating together with all their pals and we were glad the park was a great place to play and get soaked with water guns.
Happy Birthday Jack and Kyle!!
