BLAKE'S 2nd BIRTHDAY PARTY- MICKEY MOUSE STYLE

Blake LOVES Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.  It was only fitting that we did a Mickey Mouse birthday party for our little character.  I was concerned we weren't going to be able to do much since I had been soooo sick.  Thankfully, with the help of dear friends and family, we celebrated in true Mickey Mouse fashion.  

The invitations were designed by my best friend, Mindy.  She is so incredibly talented when it comes to graphic design.  I was then able to cut out the Mickey Mouse ears using the Cricut.  (Note to self: make sure they make an envelope big enough to send the invite in)!  

The banner was super easy to do.  I designed the image, used a projector, then traced the letters and Mickey Mouse head. 
 The gift bags were also cheap and easy.  The buckets included a Mickey Mouse hat (using the Cricut) and MM stickers that you get at the Park.  (I save everything MM)!  There was also a MM activity pad, stick of changeable crayons, and a MM straw that we got at the Park.  The entire gift bag cost less than $1.50!

The photo wall included pictures (from our last two visits) of Blake with different characters.  

Michelle Baragona, my sorority sister, so kindly made this delicious and adorable cake!  

 Little did we know what was going to happen next!  It was a good thing we had family and close friends eating the cake.  

Blake's friend, Caroline, enjoyed playing with my Cabbage Patch Kids (circa 1980's).

 We moved the trampoline in the garage since it was an extremely windy day.

 Blake LOVES his new roller coaster!
