bubba's birthday party

today was bubba's birthday party (his 3rd bday is next saturday) and it was a lot of fun! i have to say that having his party at pizza hut was like the best thing ever. first off, very kid friendly food/atmosphere. who the heck doesn't like pizza? secondly, I DIDN'T HAVE TO CLEAN! lol. usually i am like a chicken with my head cut off worrying about cleaning my house before (and then after) a party and i can't relax and enjoy it because i am too busy playing Suzy Hostess. well having it at pizza hut cut down on that feeling tremendously. my kiddos were well behaved and content, everyone seemed to like it, i didn't spend a fortune decorating (can we say 2 tablecloths and 4 balloons!) and i got a kick ass deal on the pizza. seriously. and we didn't skimp out on toppings either. woohoo!

anyways, the theme was "Cars" (betcha couldn't have guessed that *eyeroll*) and bubba was in heaven. he got the "combine toy" that he's been going on and on about for weeks, lightning mcqueen shirts, a lightning rug, coloring book and markers--if it had lightning mcqueen on it, i can almost guarantee that he got it. he was so happy about everyone being there, the pizza, the cake...just everything. he didn't even notice that his mean ol' mom didn't get ice cream for his party ;)

anywho, here are the pics in absolutely no order whatsoever:
