A Totally Awsumb Hot Wheel Birthday Party

Awsumb 2005

Happy 4th Birthday

Decor:

Cones, Race Flags,

Blue, Orange and Yellow Balloons

Each kid picked out a HOT WHEEL

At the time, Hot Wheels had this neat racer with a pull out track.
Including a push button motor start and finish flag to announce the winner.
 In the end the track would wrinkle up and became impossible to roll up properly.
It was a good idea while it lasted and worked fine for the party.

I set up the track and let kids race over and over again

until everyone won their own trophy
(I guess i didn't get any pictures of the trophy awards,
but you can see Awsumb wearing his below)

October Birthdays are always rainy here in the Northwest...

But, by some miracle there was no rain! 

So we could set up the Race Car Pinata in the yard.

CAKE!

And of course, you gotta get that classic picture of hte kids lined up on the couch.

Each kid went home with their choice of:

Hot Wheel, Race Flag, Trophy

and pockets full of candy.

A Simple, Fun Party!

Disclaimer:

 I usually coordinate Awsumb's Halloween costume

 with his Birthday Parties.

But, he was really Batman in 2005

 and the above Race Car photo is from 2006,
when he was 5 years old!

Because I like things "just so" this has always bothered me!

At the last minute,  Awsumb decided to wear

this cape I had made to his specifications. 

At the time he used to ask us to call him "Bruce"

 for Bruce Wayne and wanted to be dressed up

underneath so no one knew he was the 'real' Batman! LOL!
