And the Lego Party at it’s best!

Here we wrap up our Lego party with pictures of the party and the fun things made just in case you missed one!

We start with the tri-fold Invite. This was a pretty simple and fun one to make.

Next was making the Crayons in Lego Man & Brick shapes.  NOW this was so easy I know what the boys will be giving for Christmas gifts!

Lego Crayons

From the crayon stage, we made the gift bags (same post as above).

Since I was using the Lego Mold for Crayons why not make chocolate for cupcakes also.  NO silly I made sure they were washed before I did either (Same post as Crayons).

Then came the Lego Brick Candy Bars and Juice Boxes.  This was a VERY simple one made from construction paper I bought at the dollar store.

Then came the Marshmallow Fondant.  THIS was the hardest thing I’ve made and a work out and half.  It is a sticky mess if you don’t stir in enough powder sugar before you put your hands in to kneed it.

I also put a Lego Man T-Shirt Transfer for his party attire.  This is on the post about Marshmallow Fondant.

Also on the Marshmallow fondant post, we made Lego Gummy Candies that was another EASY recipe to make and these little guys were pretty darn tasty!

And on our last post we used the Marshmallow Fondant and put it to good use on a the cakes.  We covered a Ninjago Cole Cake and mini Brick Cupcakes for each kid.

Also on that post I showed a quick banner I threw together for the party.  I was in a little daze by this time I actually stapled my thumb so there was a actually a little blood and probably sweat on this project.

And to show you the end result the actual PARTY!!  Thank you for all your kind comments and encouragement that kept me going on my mission to make this the best party!  I thankfully have a little break before we start to plan for Caden’s 5th Birthday which he has picked a SHARK theme!

Let the Lego Party beginning!  We started out with a swim party!  We ended up with 20 kids!  And thankfully 4 adults also in the pool to help with the little ones.  The kids had a blast, I think Rick and his buddy who helped us out enjoyed it just as much!  Little Caden last an hour this time in the pool.  Last year he slept the whole time! LOL  Cole had so much fun with all his friends.  I’m so happy we had a great turn out and so many wonderful people were there to support Cole to celebrate 8 years!

And then we went to the party room.  I had some great friends that helped me set up and then when we were done they were like a pit crew and turned that room and cleaned it all up.  I have some great friends.  The kids really enjoyed all the treats and I had so many moms come up to me to tell me how much they enjoyed it.  I’m so happy and proud of this party.

Phew it’s done it was a hit and I’m so happy to give this special memory to Cole.  Now I am to breath Smile!

Lego Party–Invite Time

Cole’s has picked Lego to be the theme of his party this year.  So on the hunt for Lego party ideas I went.  THANK God for Pinterest this year it made it so much easier.  I think I pinned at least 50 ideas!  I found a few invite ideas but the one I really liked didn’t let you down the template.  Then I found Allison Waken’s website and she made a FREE template for a Lego tri-fold card.  This card turned out so cute.  I don’t have Photoshop, BUT I do have Picasa so I uploaded the photos she made and was able to add words to the inside of the card.  I then saved the updated photo added it to a word document and then printed!  I found at Michael’s in the wedding section a tri-fold card that was perfect!

What you need:

  • Photoshop or Picasa to add words to your card
  • Tri-Fold Card
  • Scissors to make cuts in the card
  • Ink printer
  • Envelopes if you’re mailing
