Selected as Party of the Day on January 17th!
Little Blue Truck Birthday Bash
ByParty Recap
"Horn went "Beep!" Engine purred.
Friendliest sounds you ever heard"
Ethan's favourite book is Little Blue Truck so as his 2nd Birthday fast approached, it was a given theme for his big celebration.
As the tiny guests arrived to the party, they were greeted by Little Blue himself. Ethan's Bubba (Grandpa), is a vintage car collector and months before Ethan's birthday, his Bubba purchased a stunning 1947 International Pickup Truck. How fitting!
With creative DIY pieces and the free printable from HMH Books, the party's decor was spot on. Little trucks, little farm animals and little snacks...what more could Ethan ask for. Well, maybe the coolest Little Blue Truck cake!
"Now I see a lot depends on a helping hand from a few good friends"

Hi Leslie, we picked up the individual letters from our local party store. They are self inflatable and can also be found on Etsy, Oriental Trading or other party stores.

Hi Megan, isn't it amazing! This cake topper was a custom design made by the Cake Artist. Maybe you can find someone to paint one for you too! We would have been happy to ship it to you however it broke the day after the party :(
