We had a great time celebrating Trent's birthday on Saturday. After Blair's birthday, Trent informed me that he wanted a garbage truck birthday cake. And from there, a theme was born. Um, okay. Not the easiest cake to try and make, but this mama was game! I found a dump truck pan that I modified a smidge, and T gave me the garbage truck he wanted it to look like (Biffy).
Voila! Biffy, the garbage truck birthday cake!
I was pretty darn proud of that cake. It took me about 2 1/2 hours to decorate. You can see below the practice cake and the few tweaks I made. You can also see the inspiration of Biffy. I think I came pretty close in the final product. {grin}
We also had dirt cake in a dump truck. Super fun.
And a delicious breakfast the next day!
I also decorated around the house with his toy trucks. There were trucks on the mantle, end tables, food table, bar...he has A LOT of trucks!
Trent got it that it was his party and his presents. And he had a blast opening them. I would say 75% of what he got was some form of a truck. He was SO happy!
Time to sing.
Don't you love his shirt?
We have this book, 'I Stink!' about a garbage truck, and I found the shirt!!
{Ignore my outfit, I got peed on by a 4 mo old and had to change!}
Hours to decorate, seconds to destroy and enjoy!
But with a face like that, I could care less.
We also tried a grandkid photo. This was the best we could get.
Happy birthday, T! We love you!!
