Esme's Pawsome 3rd Birthday Party

We celebrated Esme's 3rd birthday yesterday (officially 3 on April 14th.)  We had a Paw Patrol party with a focus on Everest.  Lunch was a hot dog bar.  The menu was:
Traditional hot dogs
Natural casing hot dogs
Beer brats
Baked beans
Chips
Toppings: chili, shredded cheddar, french fried onions, fritos, tomato, onion, olives, onions, pickles, sauerkraut, pepperoncini, bacon, ketchup, mustard, BBQ sauce, hot sauce.
Vanilla cake
We opened presents after lunch.  I was trying to hide the big one for last, but Esme insisted on opening it first, then insisted on unboxing it.  
She was distracted for a whole, so her best buddy, Miggy, helped to open some of them.  He liked the bed tent she got, but was unimpressed with the sparkly clothing.
She had a good time once we got her refocused.
Cake was next!  I intended to place an Everest figure on top, but underestimated the difficulty of finding one is store.  After a fruitless trip to four Targets, I settled for a puptag made of candy melts.  I made trees from pretzels and candy melts along with piped snowflakes.
 used a tie-dyd technique inside the cake with purple and teal.
Parker was talking about the birthday party all week and was so excited when he finally got a cupcake!
All our friends were gone before I could slow down enough to take a picture.  It was such a great day celebrating Esme!
Nap Time = Party Success!
