Serenity’s 14th Golf Par-Tee

Yes, Serenity’s birthday was clear back in November but we just had her birthday celebration the end of December.

We decided to go with a mini-golf theme since Serenity wanted to go somewhere that had go-karts, etc.

I made these invitations using Printmaster for the letters the green and then I used skewers and foam for the flag and balls.

My mom and I laughed so hard watching the kids ride the bumper boats.  They were soaked!

After an afternoon at the Funtasticks Park, we went back to my sister’s house for a golf themed supper I had prepared.

Then the ultimate golf cake was presented by none other than Martha – our own cake decorator.  What’s with the name Martha and creativity?

The water and rocks were fantastic looking but the really fun thing about this cake is you can drop a BB at the top of the course and it rolls down the hill, goes through the tunnel in the mountain and drops out down at the tee at the bottom of the hill.

Both sides of the cake had a working “course” (not sure what else to call it) that the BB could roll down.  I wish I could post a video of it.  It was so ingenious. Thanks, Martha for all your hard work.  You did a fantastic job.

And that was how we celebrated Serenity’s 14th birthday.

Most of my ideas were from Kara’s Party Ideas.  I love her site.  Loads of ideas there.
