Caleb turns 2!

Saturday the 6th we had Caleb's 2nd birthday party.  He LOVES Cat in the Hat so it was a no brainer to use that as the theme.  I had so much fun doing this party. I had a dessert table! I found so much stuff online. Mostly on Ebay.  Matt has threatened to change the password to our paypal account!! Gramma Susie took these pictures for me.

I loved loved loved the decorations! I made the invitations, and this banner. I found a lady on facebook to make the cake for me and I made the cupcakes.

I made the cup cake stand too!!
I dipped oreos in blue and red candy coating, we had carmel corn, red and blue candies, strawberry pops, rock candy, animal cookies, rice crispy treats and short bread cookies all with the red and blue colors.



I even glued those polka dots on the popcorn boxes!
I may have become obsessed!!
I made cookies for "thank you for coming" treats and found really cute favor boxes for the kids!



Caleb had a great time surrounded by friends and family.  Grandpa kept saying Thing 1 to Caleb and Caleb would say, "No! 2!!" and point to his shirt.  He was in heaven with all his friends and cousins playing in his yard. 
My house looks so plain without the decorations! It was so festive looking now its just boring! Is it too soon to start planning for next years birthday?! I was so exhausted and in bed by 9:30 that nite! It was well worth it.

                                                            I love my little family!

The party was outstanding! You did such a great job and I can see why you were exhausted afterwards. Caleb was adorable, and a great time was had by all!
