Our own Radiator Springs!

It has been almost a whole month since Carley's birthday party and I am just now getting pictures up!! Pretty pitiful, I know!! ;)

We had such a great party again this year (last year was Dora!)!!! Carley's favorite movie EVER is Disney/Pixar's CARS!! She watches it all the time and quotes lines from it religiously... like "Aw, Dang!" and "She only likes me for my body!" It is so funny to hear her say them and then giggle right afterwards!

So, Chris and I came up with the idea to have a CARS birthday party. Chris made 6 of the characters from the movie out of cardboard copy paper boxes and then painted them to look like each character (Lightning, Mator, Sally, Chick, Doc, and King.) We then marked off a race track and the kids wore the cars as they raced around the track. It was sooooo much fun and the kids all had a blast! We had the party in the indoor practice facility at Chris' school, so there was also lots of other fun things for them to do.... like swing on the rings, role down the practice mats, kick soccer balls, jump on mats, and mainly just run around the place like crazy!

Here are some pics.....

Chris deserves a pat on the back for making the cars. They look just like the cars from the movie.
Looks like everyone had lots of fun!
