Bike Party

We just celebrated my son's third birthday. I think it might rate up at the top of my list of  favorite party theme we have done so far. It was the biggest hit with all the kids!!! Success!

 

I kept the food pretty simple. I had a make-your-own trail mix station, fruit & fruit dip and the cake. 

I filled jars with all sorts of snacky things & provided take out boxes for everyone to make their own trail mix. The little favor stickers & labels on the jars make it look so pulled together!

On the invitation I put for everyone to bring their bike or riding toy.

There was a parking lot if they needed to park for a while. 

 

When they arrived I directed them to the decoration station. There they could attach their license plate, add streamers, balloons, spoke beads, handle bar streamers however they wanted. Obviously the girls got the biggest kick out of this spot, where the boys were just ready to RIDE! 

I followed this tutorial to make a bike car wash, and had buckets, sponges, spray bottles & rags if they needed to give their ride a hand wash. ;) 

We put out cones & balloons to mark off the race track & we just let the kids ride as the wished. I knew at some point we might need to do a few organized rides or courses, but they were completely entertained the whole time just doing their own thing!

Boy Birthday Themes

I'm falling more & more in love with little boy birthday parties!

Now that I'm planning my son's THIRD birthday, I've been thinking about boy party themes a lot lately.

Take a look at a few packs I have that could be perfect for that little man in your life! 

I have linked to a post on my blog for most of the parties, as well as my Pinterest board that will give you all kinds of fun inspiration! Feel free to go check out & follow my other Pinterest party boards here. Or you can click the Pinterest button under "follow me" to the right.  

It seems like my stash of party packs is a little girl heavy-so I'm trying to beef up the boy side a bit.  

I always love to hear what you think! 

Any little boy party themes you've been dreaming of?

When Emma turned five, our life was a little hectic at the time! 

{Hence the reason I am just realizing I never posted about her party! Oops!}

We moved into our new house 3 days before her birthday. 

So I threw together a tiny party. To have the day we moved in. 

What!? #amicrazy

Who cares if I am, this sweet face & priceless reaction made it ALL worth it!

This is just about the most I could do on moving day. 

I had everything made & ready to just hang or put on the table before hand. We were living in a very tiny apartment for two months prior, so I had a little time on my hands!

I had tons of fun pinterest ideas swirling around my head that you can see here. 

 I had previously made a mermaid party pack, and changed the colors a bit. 

Here's a look at the favor tag & water bottle label for the other party.

This was such a fun party to decorate for! So whimsical & girly! :) 

When I'm planning a party I always need the one piece of inspiration to really get going. It might be paper goods, or some adorable fabric. One day at the end of the summer I was in Michael's looking over the 70% aisle & found this set of summer party goods & knew immediately it was just what I needed! I got two vinyl table clothes, wooden spoons, a paper lantern & two paper party bowls all for pennies!

 birthday book :: aprons from Hobby Lobby with fabric pockets sewed on :: pin the candle on the cupcake

the streamers made such a fun canopy! :: cupcake & sprinkles bar :: cupcake decorating table

 birthday cake popcorn mix :: birthday cake dip {not may favorite} :: vanilla cupcake goldfish

We had a great time decorating cupcakes, playing pin the candle on the cupcake & smashing a cute cupcake pinata! 

my beautiful 6 year old!

Artist Party

 I had so much fun creating this colorful art-inspired birthday 

party for my sweet FOUR year old! 

Right up my ally! 

She loves drawing, painting & creating...

so I knew her & her friends would have a blast getting to do so at her party. 

And who am I kidding, I knew that I would have a blast planning it! 

And I did!

Cowgirl Birthday Party

 I have more fun planning parties. Especially parties for my sweet girl! 

And our sweet baby boy isn't even hear yet & I already daydream about the fun parties he will have! :)

For Emma's 3rd birthday

{Yes, back in September...I'm just realizing I never posted it here! Oops!}

we had a fun cowgirl themed party that was oh-so cute & fun!

**This party pack is available for purchase**

See below for more details!

The Invitation

I am just in LOVE with shaped cards. 

The paper & printing quality is so fantastic & there are so many cute shapes to choose from!

Of course this invitation wouldn't have to be a shaped card, 

especially if you are wanting to print yourself, 

but it just adds that extra special touch!

 I decided to go simple with food & drinks this year.

Water & Milk 

{Chocolate or PINK}

and Cookies & Ice Cream

Simple & such a hit!

I used waterproof labels for the waters & milk so they would not bleed.

 Two fun Etsy purchases that added a fun touch 

were these cute wooden spoons

and paper straws. 

Pretty much all the decor was DIY

Burlap pennant banners, yarn pom pom banner & frayed fabric banner that I mixed for the backdrop.

I also made the cowgirl silhouette out of cardboard & trimmed it in rope

 

 We had boxes with cute shaped stickers for guests to fill with cookies to take home.

 Along with the cookies, the favors were cowboy or cowgirl hats. 

I got them off Oriental Trading & added a cute fabric band & flower for the girls & sheriff stars for the boys.

 I also made {with the help of my handyman dad!} these stick horses for some party time entertainment!

 I also made some simple cowboy & cowgirl coloring pages for the little ones to enjoy.

 We had our own version of a photo booth for everyone to enjoy with these cute cowgirl & cowboy cut-outs! Love them!

 A tradition I started for our kids on Emma's first birthday is to have a children's book that goes along with the theme of the party for the guests to sign. It's such a fun keepsake & they get read often!

 How cute is my sweet little cowgirl!?
