we're having a baseball party!

still having done invites but we have 5 weeks, so they need to be done this week.

food is going to be baseball style: chili (if cold enough) nacho bar, hot dogs & condiments, peanuts, etc
drinks: bottled water/rootbeer/coke/beer

plates/napkins/etc: getting plain red/blue solo cups/plates/plastic forks and then ordering Texas Rangers cake plates and napkins

need to decide on cake and get it ordered in the next few weeks. His will be a baseball smash cake and inside the cake we're revealing the gender of the new baby.

need to get his shirt made...mom and i are doing this, so that's easy.

decor: making fabric banners to hang, have a baseball bat for everyone to autograph to go with the softball from his baby shower. Also putting his handprint on a baseball to display. Also making a banner with his 12 months of pictures to hang with clothespins decorated with numbered baseballs 0-12. Will order red/blue balloons as well.

i think we'll get my parents to get tables/chairs from their church...we're having the party at their house.

hmmmm what i am forgetting??

We need military orders. Then I might actually be able to plan something, weather it's here, back home, on the road, or in a hotel somewhere in the country. (We're due to move, but don't have orders yet. lol)

Adorable! And you are so on top of things! I'm a little jealous.

We are just going to have a small get together with family here at Jason's parents house. If our bid is accepted today, we still won't be able to close til mid-end of October, so this is our only option for now. My mom preemptively bought Phineas and Ferb deco for Logan, so I guess we're gonna go with that. No idea what we're going to do for food stuffs yet, but I will figure that out the night before. And a cake! Oh my! No idea on that one either yet.

So cute Katie!! And I love Phineas and Ferb, so that would be an awesome party! I would totally make a Perry cake! LOL

Isla's is an owl theme!

I sent out invites this week.
I have the personalized owl shirt, and a pink tutu. I still need shoes!
I ordered the cake topper and some cupcake toppers from etsy that are ADORABLE!




I am making a two tiered cake, and whoopie pies (with the cupcake toppers).

I need plates, silverware, cups, napkins, tablecloths, an owl pinata, candy to fill the pinata, favors and treat bags for the kids, balloons, streamers, a happy birthday banner, etc.

I am having spiral honey ham, chicken pot pie, mashed potatoes, butternut squash soup, salad. I am ordering apps from a catering place here.

Obviously I need gifts. To clean the house, get ice, drinks, clean out the fridge for putting food and the downstairs fridge for the cake.

I think thats it. Not much, haha

I just spend far too much time on pinterest. I get the best ideas there. A friend of mine is super crafty though, she threw my shower so some of that stuff will get used again. WAY WAY cute stuff.

We needed pop up tents, we used big tupperware bins for the soda and beer, ice. Tape for the streamers. We used a changing table cover for the high chair, for easy clean up! Crock pots, food was prepared ahead of time, then all I did was put them in a few hours before the party. So I could enjoy the day.
