Yet another birthday has come and gone in our house… this year we went low key. My son opted out of a kid party for a larger gift he REALLY wanted… He is super happy – but mom missed the BIG kid party!
There was no Spiderman, Star Wars, or Lego craziness… Just a little visit from Super Mario.
The cake was even easy and I feel a little guilty, but this was the first year in the 9 birthdays my son has had that I did not make the cake. It was from a local bakery – Bartram and it was deadly good and worth every penny! I am so glad it is all gone!!!
I did however make Star Cookies to match the Mario Theme.
Aren’t they cute?… Check out the little figures!
I got those at Amazon. Click here to see them and these little Mario Cars were a hit too!
It’s hard to find Mario plates and decorations at local stores. I got plates on Amazon. I also bought my son a Mario sheet set for his bed. The table cloth is actually his sheet that will eventually go on his bed. I loved the way the bright blue made the room happy! Plus a Mario balloons and some homemade decor. and you are set to make a little Mario fan smile!
