Mermaid Cookies & Under the Sea Fun

Tonight I'm taking my Mom out for dinner and a movie, but I didn't want another post to go by without sharing Lil C's birthday with you.

I imagine it must be difficult to visualize airplane cookies turning into mermaids, but I swear they did. Here's the photographic evidence.

Here's some of the food. The fruit kabobs were a big hit.

Here's the starfish bread bowl I made for the crab dip.

Here's the other one. . .

Here's one of the kid activities. They made "under the sea" things to hang on their bedroom doors.

This was a game for the Mer-Dads. They had to eat all the Swedish Fish on their plate and they just happened to be under a huge pile of whipped cream. No hands allowed. They were such good sports.

Mr. BBM was a good sport. The man can eat whipped cream like no one's business. He barely even got messy.

Here are all the good sports.

Of course, the kids needed a turn too.

Here's the awesome Ariel cake.

And the birthday girl. . .

Here are some of the under the sea decorations.

More pics of the camel ride on her actual birthday to come!

Looks great!! LOVE the starfish bowl! That would work for a Spong.eBo.b party, too. Great job, BBM.
No one has said anything about the Mr. BBM and whipped cream comment? Really? Clearly Karl or Avitable have not read this yet… 🙂

Hey BBM,
That looks like a lot of fun.
The starfish bread bowl immediately reminded
of a place in Southwest Germany.
They have similarly shaped bread and this only on one day every January.
And, yes, they too play funny eating games.
Anyway, thanks for the great post and the awesome pics.

I had to go re-read what I wrote. Clearly I was exhausted and also, you need to get your mind out of the gutter woman! 😉
