Adventure Time!!!

Do you know what time it is? its.....
My daughter is a huge Adventure time fan. So for her 12th Birthday I did an Adventure Time Birthday.
I booked a room at the Marriott on the 16th Street Mall in Downtown Denver, and told her to invite her friends.
First I had to decorate the room. We had Balloons, Streamers, and Silly String.And cute adventure time cutouts.
I made my Mr. Cupcakes the night before My baby loves Red Velvet so I made her my Red Velvet cakes homemade. and used chocolate goldfish for the mustache some pink sprinkles for the nose and pearl sprinkles for the eyes.
Hailey and I went shopping and made our party give aways. I made a box with a Paper BMO for each girl. Inside each girl received some Glow sticks, Glow Wands, Glow Jewelry, Silly String, Disguise Glasses, A Mustache, And Glow Masks. It was amaze! My boxes were cute too.
In planning the party I made a few of the decorations myself. Lady Rainicorn. I made her from cardstock and rainbow colored streamers.
I also found these paper toys on Cartoon Networks webpage They were really popular you just print cut and fold and you have characters everywhere.
So with my Balloons and fun decorations I decorated away. I bought the girls fun snacks and adventurous toys and do dads to explore










All the girls came wearing footie pajamas since we were having a sleep over. The girls were happy with the goody boxes, equipped with mustaches, disguise glasses, glow wands, glow sticks, glow necklaces, they suited up and were ready to hit the city streets. They were so colorful and filled with excitement.
So it took them out for

 ADVENTURE TIME!!!





16th Street Mall in Denver is Fun. A very colorful atmosphere of Peddlers, musicians and entertainers, but I think the girls were the life of the night. We brought a party everywhere we went, In the streets, 16th Street mall on the free bus, in the park, at Buelle Theatre and in the Denver Performing Arts Complex. I took the girls on an Adventure they would never forget

Knights and Squires

Spencer loves Chivalry. I mean is obsessed. So of course he wanted a Knight themed party. Oh Yes
Spencer your request is granted. I first sent out a Royal Decree to attend his Birth Celebration.
I printed the Invites on 8.5x11 paper and rolled it up
to be delivered by the Raven...
Once Upon a Time in a land far away, the king sent out a Royal Proclamation 
There the plans were set now to get things in order.
For the Celebration to happen the Forest, Castle and Dragon were all in the best location Deane's Children's Park was equipped with all of the magic to make the Renaissance come to life.

A Castle,

The Dragon
So with these elements the planning began. The decorations we made at home. The Kingdom Banners were made and hung where the feast would take place.
 
The kids had fun helping me make House Banners. They came out really great.
The Great Hall looked Festive representing Kingdoms near and far
 
The Tables were set with gifts for the Royal Guests,


 
The armory was stocked
 
Next we set a feast fit for kings
I set the long tables with everything you would see in the celebration feast
 
 


We cut sandwiches with the Fleur de Lis, and Shields of Armour
To start the day we dressed out knights and lady's in their best Fashions and Armors
  
We Made Sur Coats for the knights from felt we cut a hole for the head, and shapes, the knights chose the colors and shapes and we belted them up. We found swords they could swing around.
 
The day began, with a great treasure hunt. With two maps and Father Guides we sent the teams on a quest. A Quest to find the hidden gold, stolen by the Eargon Dragon. Her dragon set eggs as clues in the great forest kingdom. The children read their maps to find the clues to the next dragon eggs left behind.
In came the Master of Defense, the greatest swordsman in the land. He came to show the pupils the way of the sword. 
      
In the middle of training A great Dragon came over the Horizon
The men grabbed their swords and prepared for the attack

Eargon dragons mate flew in to reclaim the treasure we has procured. So our knights, ladies and subjects set to slay the great Green Dragon Rheagon

 
All the land used their swords to slay the great green Rhaegon.
 
   
The dragon was slain.
The celebration of the Knight's feast finished the mid summer nights eve.

He lived Happily ever after
The End
