Party Recap

Start Your Engines! Pierce is turning 5! Family and friends were invited to celebrate the big event in style with a Hot Wheels race car birthday. Blue and red race cars were paired with black and white checkered flags and trophies for party décor.

A door sign was posted at the entrance to the event and read “Welcome Race Fans.” Black and white checkered pennant flags waved overhead. A “Happy Birthday” Banner was in keeping with the party theme.

The party table included a race track runner leading to the centerpiece designed with a championship trophy beneath the “FINISH” line banner. The trophy held a “Happy Birthday Pierce” cupcake topper especially designed for the occasion. Inflatable pool tires were “mounted” under the party table not only for décor, but the party was also a swim party for guests!

Café table centerpiece featured race cars.
