BMX Bike Birthday Party at The Lumberyard

May 21, 2013 by dailygnome 19 Comments

We celebrated Carson’s birthday this past weekend with his friends at The Lumberyard, a unique indoor bike park not too far from our house. It was the perfect venue for a bunch of rowdy six and seven year olds {and a few dads} to burn off energy and have a ton of fun:

All boys! Got them to sit still long enough for this photo opp {with the promise of cupcakes after the clicks}:

Chocolate, vanilla and red velvet cupcakes from Saint Cupcake. I designed some appropriate-themed toppers:

UPDATE:
Due to many requests, I’ve decided to make the cupcake toppers, favor bag tags and thank you notes available for download. Enjoy!

    I love these cupcake toppers and how you used the paper bag with the little tags! Could you please share it with me? I have had no luck finding anything related to the bmx bike theme around my house. I am running out of time, my son’s 10th birthday is this Saturday!

    I would really appreciate it : )

    We are getting really excited for my son’s 8th birthday next week! Your website is by far the most helpful – any chance you can make the “10” an “8” on the cupcake toppers for us? You are amazing!
