The best days for me are the days I get to feature a great party sent to me by a reader. With that said, today is a great day because Abby sent over photos of her son Noah’s train themed third birthday party that I just couldn’t wait to share with you. I see a lot of birthday parties in bold, vibrant colors so I kind of love that Abby chose muted shades and pastels when planning Noah’s party. It still says ‘little boy’ to me without giving off a superhero vibe. Abby created the train cake topper using a tutorial from Cake Journal and I love that she opted to celebrate with a small family party loaded with sweet details like striped straws and little flags on the  tea sandwiches, making Noah’s birthday perfectly festive and fun for a little boy turning three.

Thanks for sharing, Abby, and a big happy birthday to Noah!
