Morgan's Musical Blowout

So here is Morgan's 2nd Birthday Party in all its glory!My mini-cupcake guitar cake complete with hot pink frosting...just how every little boy dreams it will look! I swear we were trying for red but after using about half the bottle of consentrated food coloring gel, we decided to call it a night and go with electric pink. Our kid's a rockstar so he can pull it off!
That is Morgan with his serious rocker face.

Morgan always gets a little stage fright when the attention is turned on him (something he'll have to get over before his big rockstar debut). But after Cody helped him blowout the candles, he quickly recovered and starting shoving as many cupcakes into his mouth as possible. He even ate some of the wrapping.

All his little friends who helped him celebrate.
From left to right: Aaron, Harper, Morgan, Sebastian, Tedrah, Cyra, Chase and Eliot (Lucia and John Henry didn't make it into the picture)
And yes they all have bright pink lips and teeth. That frosting was intense!
Those are the lips and cheeks of a happy birthday boy!

Me and my favorite little man with a guitar!

The male representation at the party. Thanks guys for helping us rock!

This guitar was Morgan's special birthday gift and boy o' boy does he LOVE it.
He plays it from morning till night. Our walls are taking a slight beating but the kid is happy.

I love watching him do a little dance every time he plays an instrument or sings.

That is one pink mouth!
Here is a slide show of all the wonderful pictures Nikki took for us. Thanks again for being our photographer and friend!
This morning Morgan discovered our bike pump again and decided it would make a perfect mic stand. He grabbed his other new guitar (thanks Castro family) and got down to rockstar business.
Here is a great video of Morgan rocking out. I couldn't believe he kept performing once I got the camera but he did it beatifully. I love how he gets a little crazy with the electric guitar and then gets all mellow with his acoustic.
Happy Birthday my wonderful little man and thank you to all who helped us celebrate.
We are truly blessed to be able to call you our dear friends!

SO cute! I love the hot pink guitar - definitely rock'n'roll! I can't get over how much older he looks with that haircut!

I loved the pictures. The guitar cupcakes looked great. How fun! I love the mic stand too, that's ingenious.

That is so awesome! Your little Morgan is HILARIOUS! I never knew a 2 yr old could have such strong tendencies towards rockstardom! Rock on, little man. Rock on.

Coolest party! The cake looked perfect. Adorable party-goers. I particularly love the picture of the daddies/roadies. (I cannot tell you the restraint it took not to use the word 'awesome' in every sentence of this comment.) AWESOME!
