Farm Themed Birthday Party {Life is a Party}

Over at Life is a Party, Dannyelle and her family were invited to a Farm party. You may remember when I featured Dannyelle earlier this summer after she helped style a Cherry Blossom party. Thanks to Dannyelle once again for sharing all the party pictures (and thanks to Allie’s mom for putting the party together!)

Here was the food…with such clever names!

Then there were all of the activities…

What an awesome party full of fun preschool age games! To see parties Dannyelle has put together - check out her daughter’s Ice Cream Party post and her husband’s Oscar the Grouch themed party! (I think I should host an Oscar the Grouch themed party for my hubby too! LOL!)

Enjoy,

I Picked a Theme – Farm Picnic

Mason is going to be 2 on July 1st. I have three months to prepare for the party. Mike and I decided on a ‘Farm Picnic’ theme. I wanted to have some animals brought to the house for a petting zoo – but Mike wants a bounce house. Who will win?

I’ve been pinning away on pinterest and marking favorites on ETSY. Here is what I have as ideas and inspirations so far -

An invitation idea from Mommies Ink

A mold to make crayons party favors.

Piggy treat bags from Jetta Bees

Bandanas from Oriental Trading

Red and White paper straws from Cupcake Social

Veggies in cups on Pinterest

Red Barn Fondant cupcake toppers from Cookie Covers

Silverware basket from Pinterest

Gingham favor bags from The Party Fairy

Hay bale seating idea from Pinterest.

Love this photo booth idea from Pinterest.

If you have any inspirations, game ideas, or input – please share!

Modern Farm Birthday {The Diary of Dave’s Wife}

Just like me, Dave’s wife (AKA Kristy) from the blog The Diary of Dave’s Wife, started thinking about a theme for her son’s birthday months in advance. She came up with a Modern Farm theme, and boy did things come together!

Isn’t this backdrop super cute? I love the mini banner across the barn!

My favorite part was the menu she created… cow pies, pigs in a blanket, bales of hay?!?! Creative thinking!

Kristy has some adorable Farm party ideas so head over to her blog and see all of the other pictures she shared from the birthday celebration. She even shared a recipe for cookie dough pops. I love cookie dough, so I’m going to have to try these babies.
