4 years old & his cooking birthday...

weston had a birthday and after many weeks of changing his mind from a superhero party, to a swim party, to a train party, he surprised us all and had his mind set on a cooking party. he wantd to have a party where he could cook with his friends like he does with daddy! i thought it sounded fun, so that is what we did...

all 24 little chefs got their own personalized apron, hat, & cooking station. the menu included all of weston's favorite food
homemade corn dog {aka piggies in a blanket}
fruit kabobs
cupcakes
weston's favorite sugar cookies and recipe as the thank you favor
of course, lots of candy!




it got a little chaotic so we played some games while our cupcakes cooked
{thanks for all the moms that stayed to help!}

my little dub is 4 and i can't believe it. thanks for being so sweet and such a little momma's boy! happy birthday, we love you.

{thanks to my friend megan for taking all the fabulous photos...you are the best!}
