Lane's Racing Party

Today I had the opportunity to continue to do what I love. I had the best time putting together Lane's two year old racing birthday party! His favorite racer is non other than the famous, Lightning McQueen! During our first consultation meeting we decided to go in the direction of a general racing theme, with touches of the movie Cars pulled in here and there.

I absolutely loved the theme for this party. It was hard-core little boy, sleek, stylish, and it presented itself well. It was also meaningful to the family because Lane's grandfather won many races in his glory days! So of course we had to use some of his gear and trophies for the decor!

It was a wonderful afternoon and a great day to celebrate the birth of sweet little Lane!

 Love this shot of the table.

 "Refuel"= Mason Jar Chalkboard Sippy Cups with red and white striped straws. The kids LOVED these and got to take them home as one of their favors. Nicole and Brandon were gung-ho about having these at the party and I think they added a precious touch!

One of Lane's trophies. I found a twin set of these at Goodwill for two bucks total. I spray painted them where the old awards were written and custom made them for the party.
