This is what Christie said about planning the party – “The birthday boy, John, is smitten with trains so it was a no brainer for his party theme. It was a day filled with friends, family, sunshine and trains! The colors selected were reflective of the invitations created by Paige Simple. The rest of the party printables were created by Paper & Cake. Outside of the Dessert Table filled with cupcakes, cookies and candies, guests were invited to a food table of sub sammies, pasta dishes, antipasta, chips/dip and other finger foods. Traditional Birthday Cake in the favorite flavor of the birthday boy – Red Velvet was served! Yum!! The little guests were able to ride a train all around the neighborhood! And when they were done they jumped in the bouncy house the rest of the afternoon making for weary little engineers for the ride home but not before they stopped by the Baggage Claim to pick up their engineer hats and scarves, boxes of crayons, bubbles, sidewalk chalk and train whistles.” Items used in this party available in Kara’s Party Ideas Shop: Paper Fringe Striped Paper Straws Lollipop / Treat Sticks Twisty Unicorn Pops Gumballs Fry Boxes Cupcake Liners Decorative Paper Shred Balloons Rock Candy Swizzle Sticks Train Shaped Lollipops
