Lucas colored his legs with markers he found in his brothers’ room on the day before the party. I guess he wanted to be decorated for his birthday party, too!
Brian is such a joy and blessing to our family. He always adds laughter wherever he goes. Happy 5th birthday, Brian! We love you so much!
I made these capes as a take-home gift in place of goodie bags. The kids painted the emblem on at the party. (For more cheap batman party ideas, see our post on Learning Continually.)
I made the cakes. This was my first attempt at making a fondant cake. I think that they turned out fairly well. I was wanting a black and white cake, but ruined the black fondant. I used gold ribbon on the devil's food round cake and pure white fondant on the rectangular white cake with blackberry filling. It was a lot of fun playing with the fondant, although I like the taste of butter cream icing much better.
This is my first attempt at making a video out of pictures and uploading it to a blog. We'll see how it goes.
