WWE Birthday Throw Down, John Cena style!

My son turned three this past June on the 28th, we celebrated his party on the 30th. I asked him several times and suggested many themes for his party and every time (over a period of 2-3 weeks) he answered "don't know", until one day I said wrestlers! Then every time after that I would ask him what kind of party he wanted and he would reply... John Cena party. After realizing he was not going to budge off of this theme I decided it was time to get creative and give my son an amazing WWE style 3rd birthday party!

I love dabbling in graphic design so I of course made THIS awesome John Cena invite for his party :o) I ordered some decorations from my normal party supply website. Those were the easy tasks. Next I had to sit down and with the help of a few friends I figured out the food list.

On the menu : CM Punch, John Jelly Bean-a Cena, Kane Krispies, Zigs in a Blanket, Big Show Sandwiches, King of the Ring Ring Pops.

After everyone enjoyed some WWE themed party foods we opened presents and enjoyed some cupcakes. I was even able to find and purchase a John Cena 'pin the tail on the donkey' kind of game for the party. All the kids had a blast trying to put the logo on his wristband! 

I had attempted to make a WWE wrestling ring cake that we placed the WWE Rumblers we bought for our son in the middle as if they were wrestling each other, but it was so hot that day and even though my cake was chilled and I was frosting it IN THE FRIDGE the frosting still was melting and making a huge mess :o( But he loved the cake and loved dipping his new Sheamus and John Cena in the frosting to sample.

Then after all the party guests went home, we played with his new toys, he fell asleep and slept peacefully the rest of the night :o) I am pretty sure he had a great time at his party with all of his family and friends!

You can't see me!

Our youngest child, and only son, will be turning 3 in June. I am both happy and sad, like most mothers :o) 

His newest interest in wrestling. Not just any wrestling but WWE wrestling! What can I say.... he is 100% boy! A few of his favorites are John Cena (of course), The Rock, Sheamus, Big Show, and Kane.... just to name a few :o) 

When I asked him what kind of party he wanted he looked at me with that serious little face of his and said "Mom, don't know." So I started naming off stuff, Spiderman... Cars.... Construction (Diggers, Trucks).... and then I said wrestling! He shouted "Yeah! Yeah, Mom! Me want Cena party! Cena's great!" So a couple weeks went by and I asked again what kind of party he wanted and he still insisted on a John Cena party, not wrestling in general, John Cena! 

I sat down and made his invite for the party last night, graphic design is yet another one of my many crafty hobbies I enjoy doing! :o) I wanted to share the invite now, even though I am sure I will eventually share more Cena party pictures after the party, but I just couldn't wait that long to share this!!! I knew what I wanted in my head and upon searching and searching for what seemed like forever I could NOT find the fonts I wanted to use. So what did I do you might ask..... I made the font look the way I wanted it to look by simply editing it using my favorite program, gimp! When our son woke up today and after breakfast I showed him the invite, hoping to get his approval :o) He loved it!!! 

So what do you all think? Is this a worthy John Cena birthday invite??
