Cowboy Party!

This cowboy birthday was a blast!   We made a simple white cake with a cake cowboy hat on top.  It was frozen cake we sculpted into a hat. 

 We made a bandana border around the cake and then made a yellow rope boarder to look like a lasso.  

For decorations we simply wrapped a bandana around a mason jar and put the utencils in it.

 Party favors were so easy.  We had cowtails, yoyos, and candy and tied the baggie with rope.  Boys got "Woody" girls got "Jessie".


 One game was pin the badge on the Sheriff.  We just colored it ourselves on construction paper.  I love these kind of decorations cause they don't cost much at all, and clean up is easy....you just throw them in the garbage. :)


For another game we had a bunch of plastic cow toys, from a cowboy set, from the dollar store, and we had a daughter dress up like a bandit and steal the cows.  The kids had to look for "Cactus Kate" and the birthday boy had a shootout with her.  They got back the cows and saved the day.  We put "Cactus Kate" in jail.  Ha!

For another game we learned how to lasso a horse.  (Toy horse).  Too cute , the kids loved it!




















We also played "hot potatoe", but instead had an inflatable cactus and played, "pokey cactus".....they loved it!  

We had a Boot pinata....and when it broke open it had gold coins and 1,000,000 grand candy bars.
