Cars 2

In case you didn't know, Cars 2 came out this past Friday and we were waiting for just the right time to go see it with Katie and Emmy as kind of a repeat of Toy Story last summer. Well, that time was tonight and with the help of Luke watching the boys, Blake and Boone, us girls took advantage of the afternoon. Here are Bailey and Emmy right before we left. They were so excited! Aunt Ali had made Bailey this skirt for her birthday last year and Katie made Emmy a skirt too, with matching shirts for both girls. Katie can pretty much whip up anything cute with her sewing machine.  I'm kinda jealous, but someday she will teach me her tricks.

 Running up to the theatre. Speed, We Are Speed!

The show was cute and Bailey loved seeing the old characters. The new characters were "kinda a little different" in Bailey's words and I don't think it will top the original Cars for us, but fun nevertheless.

So, my part of the fun was the food after the show and here's what I came up with for dinner. A map of Radiator Springs laminated as place mats with different cars on their "homes" and foods to go along with it.

 Some of Flo's Oil.

The Cozy Cone (made from squares of cheese)

The Leaning Tower of Tires

Enjoying the meal.

And I didn't forget about the little boys, but didn't quite go all out for them- they got the bagel bites aka spare tires and Tow Mater's Tater Tots.

Oh, and there was a special guest appearance by....

 McQueen him/herself. Yes, I made Tori dress up as Queeny for the kids.

And here's a few pictures of Bailey in action around the house- the window ledge and the entertainment center are both great places for driving all her cars to the race.



And thanks to Bailey's Gigi she and Blake both have a new car to add to the line up.
