Marley turned 6 at the end of March and Mason turned 2 at the beginning of April. With us moving and my parents also moved I decided to wait until June to have their birthday party. Marley decided she wanted a penguin party, then it was hello kitty, then something else, and then I finally talked her into having a pirate party. We only invited family this year so the party was a bit low key compared to previous years, but we all had fun and the whole family got to see our new house too.
I got all the party supplies at Party City and Meijers. I put the table cloth on the counter and wrote what everything was with arrows. Thought it was sort of like a treasure map? I made cannon meatball sandwiches, ranch bean dip, fruit kabob swords, deviled egg pasta salad, veggie pizza, and goldfish and chips.
I got the cupcake toppers on clearance for 50 cents, what a bargain! I made strawberry cupcakes with butter cream frosting, and white cake with s'mores frosting. I used crumbled graham crackers to make the X on the cake.
We played ladder ball, catch and the kids swam. It was a great party and the kids got lots of great outside toys like chalk, bubbles, and pool toys.
I can't believe my babies are so big already. =( Time to start planning next years party. =)
