80th Birthday Dinner Party

This past Tuesday was my grandfather's 80th birthday! It was a celebration in my family! The whole weekend consisted of festivities for him and the family to be together but on his actual birthday I hosted a dinner party for him. He has always loved cows and tractors, typical country boy. As a younger man he had his own farm tending to his cows and mowing his hay. For the table I wanted to incorporate this so I did a black and white theme and my cousin made the cow cake. He loved the night! Here are the pictures to prove it!

Appetizer to start things off

This is a very easy tablescape. A cloth table allows you to write and decorate it.

Place cards were adorned with cow spots

Overall Table

Loved the cake! It matched his sense of humor!

This was my cousin's goal, to make a cake that had a cow on it! (and the poop just added another touch)
My grandfather "that is going to be shitty piece of cake, I don't want that one" (pointing at the poop)
