Nothing fancy here, photographically speaking, but I thought I’d share a few more images from Sarah’s party. We had a FANTASTIC weekend and were reminded once again why we’re glad to be living back close to family. I have to say that being away for the first 6 years of our marriage was really, really good for us but now that we have kiddos in the picture it’s so awesome to be back! Sarah was in hog-heaven with all of her grandparents there (except Grandad who was on a trip). She also had all of her cousins there – Charlotte, Lily, and Brody!
a few more birthday shots…and tidbits
Very cool. I’m glad Sarah had a good time! Love the coloring book idea and homemade crayons. Aren’t you Martha Stewart.
You did a great job of putting the party together! I would have never guessed that you didn’t put a month of work into it. Looks like you all had fun! 🙂
great job! i wanna see a picture of one of the coloring books if you get a chance!
glad to see you are using your teacher creativeness for this one! it turned out beautifully!
Thanks for all your secrets! And- oh my gosh-Charlotte is looking SO big! It’s so great that all of her cousins could be there. I’m filing these ideas in my party planning folder 🙂 (oh, and I really really really wish we could have been there!)
Happy Birthday, Sarah! It looks like you planned an adorable and easy party. I am loving your cake decoration idea!
TWO already?! What a FUN day! I may have to steal a few of those ideas for Kelsea’s big day in a couple months! I can’t wait to see more pictures of Sarah & Baby Cobb’s room! Makes me want to have more kids just so I can decorate their rooms-LOL!
Pretty much ditto to everything that Amy said! Scary when you see your exact thoughts (in order!) already typed out and posted for you!
I am totally stealing your ideas for next Spring when my daughter turns two. You are so creative! Thank you for sharing your tips and tricks. Your blog is one of my favorites to visit!
Seriously you guys, there’s no such thing as “stealing”! I swear, I rarely have an original idea…I pilfer from ANYONE and EVERYONE! =) So no worries! Glad this helped some of you.
If there IS such a thing as “stealing,” Marth Stewart TOTALLY stole the crayon thing from my mom! I remember sorting the broken church crayons into muffin cups for about 2 hours one Sunday when we were little. The kitchen smelled so waxy!
I am absolutely going to make that cake next month for the bean’s 2nd birthday! Thanks for sharing! I will be sure to pass it on too!
What great party! I love all the little details! Thank you for sharing your bargain secrets!!
Happy 2nd birthday, Sarah!
I’m so glad you had a great time. I love the coloring book idea.
Ok – since you said it’s not stealing – thank you for SHARING these AWESOME ideas with us!! What a fabulous party, and I’m so glad you all had a wonderful time with friends and family. I, too, would love to see the coloring book.
Looks like you had a wonderful day! Good job with the party mommy!
What a great party. I love all the little details.
