For our home family party, I made a cake myself and it was TONS of work. I tried it as a test run for the party at the park and decided that a sheet cake from Costco with embellishments from toys we had at home would be a better option! It definitely was and I still got lots of compliments on it. ;)
We had their party at Burke Lake Park last weekend and it was so much fun. There is a train, carousel, and playground there along with a pavilion for us to have cake, ice cream, and snacks. It was a Mickey and Minnie Mouse theme and of course, I planned it for several weeks before it actually arrived. With the help of my wonderful Cricut scrapbooking cutting machine, I was able to make several things, including the favor bags, centerpieces, and banner. Everything else was courtesy of Party City and Costco.
