Birthday Bash (thank God for auto-save!)

Happy Birthday to our beautiful boy!
(and, as the title states, thank God for auto-save which is a feature of Blogger that saved the post I bitched & whined about losing, in my previous entry!)

He turned 3 yesterday, & truly had such a great time.
He got spoilt beyond belief from the whole family, & has been entertained with his birthday gifts ever since he got them!

He is a bit of a Cars fanatic,& almost everything he received was something to do with Cars.

From Aunty Kylie & Uncle Stevo, he got the most gorgeous little Yamaha racing shirt.

On Sunday night, my oldest, bestest friend Bridgett came down to stay for a few days, & as usual, it is so bloody awesome to spend time with her...(& to con her into helping make the birthday cake slipped into mind!)

Then, after speaking with my gorgeous little sister, she also decided to come down to celebrate Jaydens birthday, & have a girly time with Bridgey & I.

She brought with her some pretty wicked home-made Kahlua that rocked my socks off, I tell ya!

(Must remember to order some of that for me, Kyle's

We had a pretty late night the first night, before Jaydens birthday, & still had to assemble & decorate the cake, (which we were bright to put off til the morning, considering we were all drunk & giggly!)

Had the best time, catching up with the gorgeous girls.

The next day, we got up to a pretty excited little man, who really understood the whole concept of the birthday thing this year!

Well, we thought he did...until he started opening his presents, & was a bit puzzled looking.

We asked what was wrong & he looked at us so seriously, with a frown etched on his little face, palms upturned, & said, "Wheres the car cake?"

Ever since we had began discussing his birthday, when asked what he would like for his birthday he would say "A Car cake!"

So with that in mind, a "car cake" was definately on the agenda where cake was concerned!

Bridgey & I whipped up a pretty wicked car cake, if I do say so myself!
Jayden loved it!

It was a double sponge that we filled with jam & cream, then iced chocolate.

We made a road with milkbottle lollies chopped up as the centre lines on the road & a grassy bit to each side, which was coconut with green food colouring.

We made a traffic light with jelly lollies as the different light colours.

And jelly racecars on the road & grass!

It looked so cool!!

Jayden even blew out all the candles on his cake un assisted this year! He really is a big boy!

(He actually enjoyed that part so much that he insisted we light them again for a second go!)
