Sam's birthday celebration continued today with a Cars party at our house for friends and family. The Cars movie has been Sam's favorite for quite a while and he loved all of the "Queen" and "Mater" decorations and toys everywhere!
My mom and I made some Cars wreaths for the front doors that turned out really cute!
Sam's Lightning McQueen cake and cupcakes were a big hit. Dream Cakes did a great job and everything tasted just as good as it looked.
I had fun decorating the entry-hall table with all of Sam's little cars from the movie. 
We setup a small table for the kids to color and play stickers.
And Sam even had his own special Cars Happy Birthday plate! 
This was one of the "toolboxes" we gave as party favors to Sam's friends.
These two sweet little girls were having fun coloring...
so these two handsome boys decided to join them!
After lots of playing and coloring it was time for some food before we had cake and ice cream. Sam and I took a break from snacking to smile for the camera.
We obviously weren't moving on to the cake fast enough for Sam because he got caught trying to sneak a little bite before we could even sing and blow out candles. Watch out, Daddy....Sammy is quick!
"Isn't it time for cake yet? I've been waiting all day to dig in!"
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Sam, Happy Birthday to you!
Make a wish!!
Yay, you did it!!!
We love our sweet boy to pieces!
Shuffie was nice enough to let Sam eat the big, black fondant tire off the cake - pure sugar. I told Shuffie that I would be happy to let Sam go to his house after the party and they could bounce off the walls together for the rest of the day. ;)
Remnants of the delicious tire....
And he gladly showed us his new black tongue, too!
Time for presents - so much fun!!
A new "titar" from Lili & Shuffie.
And so many other wonderful presents from our friends and family - thank you!!
"Sssssssss," says Pirate Sam. Who said a pirate always had to say Argghhh? ;)
Adam and I got Sam a tricycle. We kept it upstairs during the party and Adam brought it down at the end of the presents. Sam loved it! 
Daddy had to help Sam with the pedals but it won't be long before Sam will be riding around all by himself. 
The cousins tried out of the tricycle together - they are quite a pair! :)
Playing with friends, eating cake, and opening presents can wear a boy out! Sam had to take a quick break in his new Ole Miss chair from Sarah.
Even Rusty and Adam stopped to rest their feet for a minute too!
Lili, Sam and Sarah(The birthday boy was starting to look a little sleepy in this one.)
Sam and his three sweet great-grandmothers. How blessed we were to have them all at the party with us!
We appreciate everyone that came to the party and helped make it such a fun afternoon. Sam was still going strong long after the last guest left but once he hopped up in my lap and was still for a minute it didn't take either one of us long to fall asleep. Being two is hard work and I think I agreed with him this afternoon! ;)
