Ryder Turns Flea

He's "flea", he's "flea"… I can not believe that my little baby boy just turned "flea".  We celebrated his third year with a CARS and Planes themed party with family and friends.  Everything was perfect and it seemed like everyone had a great time.  

Ryder's awesome cake… made by one of my sweet friends.  Totally dairy and egg free especially for our birthday boy.  

The piñata… pretty much the hit of the party.  You would think that a pool full of tire floats would be the main attraction… nope, the little dinky Planes piñata was.

This is pretty much what a good time looks like!  Pool party success!

I have to share my favorite decoration… I am all about the little extra details… these eyes for our cars that we cut out turned out awesome!  The look on Ryder's face when he came out and saw that my van and Eric's truck had CARS eyes was absolutely priceless.  He thought these eyes were the coolest things.

Radiator Springs Comes To Life

Ryder's absolute favorite movie for well over a year now has been CARS (one and two).  Eric and I both were both looking forward to getting to take Ryder to Cars Land while we were at Disney.  No joke, the boy plays with his CARS cars every. single. day. all. day. long.  The movie is always on somewhere or being quoted by him while he is driving his cars around.  We have grown to love it as much as him.  The look on his face when he saw Tow Mater and all his other favorites cruising down the streets of Radiator Springs was priceless.  This is why people pay the high prices to take their family to Disneyland over and over again.  Disneyland is magical and the way that they bring the movies to life is amazing.  Getting to see Ryder blown away by their animated favorites coming to life in a real life built Radiator Springs made our trip worth every penny.

It is seriously unreal how they brought this movie to life.  Every little detail is perfect.
