Today we had a birthday party for Carolyn at a bowling alley.\u00a0 What fun!<\/p>\n

We only had to bring the birthday child and a cake.\u00a0 Or, in this case, cupcakes.<\/p>\n

I hate writing directly on cakes, the banner is much better!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I was heavily inspired by these<\/a> two<\/a>bowling cupcake projects.\u00a0 And honestly, this was probably the easiest birthday “cake” I’ve ever made.\u00a0 Cupcakes, piped swirls of icing, and fondant decor.\u00a0 There was so little work and they turned out so cute!<\/p>\n

Everyone seemed to have a great time!\u00a0 The fancy shoes on the slippery floor were an especially huge hit.\u00a0 As were the “lightsaber” battles with the glow stick necklaces we gave out…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Super stylish footwear. With velcro, too!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Neither of my children have bowled very much – actually, this might have been Anna’s very first time.\u00a0 Luckily, they were far more interested in throwing the ball down the lane than their scores!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Watching the ball...how many pins will fall down?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n
\"\"<\/a>
Three hands are better than two!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I would definitely do a bowling party again.\u00a0 It’s by far one of the easiest birthday parties we’ve had for either child.\u00a0 Carolyn was absolutely thrilled with it!<\/p>\n
