Food: Cowboy Party!

Every year Jay and his best friend, Greg, have a joint themed birthday party. This year the boys decided on a cowboy theme. Secretly, Kelsey (Greg's girlfriend) and I love planning themed parties and the guys' birthdays are a perfect excuse. Here are some pictures from the event. 

Birthday Boys! 

 We named and labeled all of the food after famous Westerns and their characters! I made two recipes from The Pioneer Woman Cooks cookbook, which Jay requested. Together we cooked the rosemary scallop potatoes and a beef tenderloin, delicious! Kelsey made, chicken, her famous coleslaw from a secret family recipe, and corn salad!

 
 This is the gorgeous cake Kelsey made.  She got the recipe from the Vintage Cakes cookbook, this is the Goober Cake! Perfect for Jay and Greg who love peanut butter and chocolate! I keep telling her she needs to start a side business, all of her cakes are beautiful and so scrumptious.

  

 The party was a blast, lots of great food, costumes, drinks and a few rowdy games! What is your favorite theme party? We need ideas so we can start planning for next year!
