The first Christmas I got to spend with the Happy Hubby’s family was so special!
They introduced me to a super fun idea of baking a special birthday cake for Jesus on Christmas, singing ‘Happy Birthday’ to him, and then having everyone get their saliva all over the cake blow out the candles. 🙂
Here’s the Happy Buddy and me with the whole gang of nieces and nephew for the Happy Birthday Jesus Cake last Christmas.
This year I decided to kick it up a notch.
This year I decided to throw a whole Happy Birthday Jesus PARTY for the Happy Buddy and 2 of his little friends from church.
I think the Happy Buddy has a future as a cake decorator.
His additions were pure genius.He’s so creative that decorating the cake was not enough.We put together a little tray of snacks.We made sure everyone would have access to playing with our Fisher Price Nativity set!A banner was hung in honor of the Birthday Boy.When our friends arrived, we did a special craft using some Nativity Stickers that I bought from here.Soon it was time to sing and cut the cake!Do you love how I am laughing about something and completely oblivious to the fact that the Happy Buddy is reaching for the MATCHES?!?!YUM!Can we celebrate Jesus’ birthday every day??? 🙂After all that sugar, the Happy Buddy and his friends went bananas with the couch cushions.
And there were party favors, too!
Everyone went home with some special Nativity Window Clings that I found at Walmart.As well as a Nativity Balloon that we found at Publix!
It was a super special morning with all the focus on the Reason for the Season.
Here’s a video clip of my favorite part…
Merry Happy Birthday Jesus Party-ing! 🙂
