Our Guest of Honor is "Caroline the Garden Gnome":
Also in attendance were King Triton (Aaron) and a lovely Mermaid (Ali):
Several characters from classic literature made brief appearances, such as an elf from the Lord of the Rings...
Along with Mr. Tumnus.
I caught this adorable Leprachaun sneaking crackers, but alas, she had no pot of gold for me.
Party Menu:
Green Goddess Dressing and Veggies
Crackers and a Hairy Eyeball (Cheeseball)
Meatballs (because they look like LOTR food to me)
Fresh Baked Bread Wreath (no pic, they ate it too fast)
Toadstool and Baby Toadstool Cakes
Happy Birthday, Baby!!
Oh, yeah. Just go for it.
Toadstool Cake made everybody happy. :)
The party was supposed to conclude with a rousing game of "Poke the Cyclops in the Eye!" but several of the mythological creatures were distracted by the presents. 
Lots more pictures will be coming to Facebook soon, including a pic of the very dashing Cyclops, who managed to sneak out of all my pictures. 
I love those mushroom cakes! Looks like a good time. :) Late Happy Birthday to Caroline!
