Party like a Rockstar!

Warning! This birthday cake is a bit graphic. You more than likely have never seen one like it. My kids get really into their birthday cakes. The things they want done to them I don't think any Bakery lady would understand. So, we are forced to make our own. This year's theme was "Ben 10". Jordan loves the show, so he wanted each character in-action doing his thing. Just so you know, I only baked and frosted the cake. My boys and their dad did the rest. I couldn't come up with this concoction in my wildest imagination. They even have some of the aliens flying above it!
I heard one of Jordan's friends comment on how violent Jordan's birthday cakes are, but so cool! They wanted to know where they could get one for their birthday. I'm not sure if that was an insult or compliment. But our kids' cakes were never "violent" until a couple of years ago when their dad took over helping to decorate them. Now I'm not allowed to touch them. Oh well, at least they think it's awesome and makes them love their birthdays all the more.
They played "Four Corners" where the person in the middle is blindfolded and has to guess which corner the rest of the kids are in. If he calls out a corner and there are kids there, those kids are out. It keeps going until there is only one kid left, and then he becomes "it".
Next they played a game where they had disk launchers and shot them at targets to get points.
Time for cake and ice-cream! I hope your wish comes true, Jordan!
The party ended with playing "Hot Potato" but with a present. They passed it around the circle until the music stopped and the person it landed on, gave his present to Jordan. If it happened to land on Jordan, well then, he had to play a bit on his electric guitar for his friends. He thought it was a lot of fun and had a great party!

The cake doesn't seem all that violent; there's no red frosting at all.
