The cake:
Why oh why did I not take pictures of the inside? It was dark chocolate cake with ooey gooey marshmallow buttercream (supposed to be like a campfire s'more, idea from Pintrest) and the milk chocolate frosting on the outside. Delicious. Totally delicious. And Bear Tracks ice cream. Keep the theme alive!I told Joe he was in charge of the actual party and I would do food. He came through in a big way. We had a good old-fashioned mountain man rendezvous, complete with hatchet toss....
bow-and-arrow shooting...
stick-wrestling...
leg-wrestling...
and cute babies underfoot. Is that not what a real mountain man rendezvous is made of?
With each event they won pelts which they strung on a leather strap and turned in at the trading post for drinks and candy and stick-on mustaches. They also got to wrestle a barr (attack an angry-bear pinata) for candy.
It was hard to find a real angry bear at the party store.Finally, when everyone went home, this is what they got for a thank-you.

I can't take the coonskin cap kit instructions off the fridge because it just makes me laugh. LOVE it.
Such a fun, fun idea.
Super cute Party! My nephew saw a coonskin cap at Bass Pro and now he wants to be Davey Crockett! So we are brainstorming it as a birthday party idea, which led me to your blog! Looks like a fun party!
