It began with a little of this. My parents always hung balloons outside our rooms for us to wake up to on our birthdays. The tradition lives on. :) One balloon for each year. :) Asa was a little unsure about them when he first saw them, but now he thinks they're GREAT!
The birthday boy first thing in the morning with Daddy!
And first thing in the morning with Mommy!
Coffee table getting festive. I couldn't find true checkerboard fabric at JoAnn's, so we went with black and white gingham.
Every birthday boy needs a special birthday chair. :)
Daddy took Asa to get a birthday donut for Asa. YUM.
He liked it. Every last bite of it. :)
Lightning McQueen cupcakes!
Lightning McQueen's friends :)

Why yes, I did make an A (for Asa) out of the carrots ;)

juice boxes wrapped with McQueen's lightning and Asa's 3!
Doorway to the kitchen
doorway to the dining room where we had posters to color of various Cars characters
goody bags
I was going to get red paper bags and decorate them with a 95 or something else McQueen themed, but Asa saw these plastic bags at Party City and loved them. Each bag had an actual Cars character car, a tire yo-yo, and a Cars bouncy ball.
McQueen party hats for all the kids (95 cut with my Silhouette)
Balloon surprise!
I made bean bags from the gingham and we had a bean bag toss into a tire. :)
Playing in the basement with Clara.
The dads take over the bean bag toss.
