It took me awhile to work up the mental fortitude to write this blog entry. Weeks of cutting out perfect little black circles for Mickey Mouse heads, coming up with Disney-inspired puns for food, and planning every detail of this Minnie Mouse-themed extravaganza earned this Momma a few weeks of Disney Detox. Now I'm back, and as Hadley watches Mickey Mouse Club on TV, I am ready to share the experience.
Hadley's birthday theme was Minnie Mouse, after her obsession with the Disney cartoon, Mickey Mouse Club. For those who have not had the pleasure of watching this show every single day for the past year, the show centers around the Donald, Daisy, Goofy, Pluto, Minnie, and Mickey cast solving problems with some tools called "Toodles." We made it into "Two-dles" in honor of Miss Hads turning two, and put together a special day.
Mommy made the invitations:
And Daddy made a sign for the beverage table:
We had home-made decorations around the house.
We set up with a ball pit, a tunnel, and borrowed a slide from our neighbors.
We had lots of fun Mickey Mouse themed food...
Hot Diggity Dogs:
Donad's Cheese and Quackers:
Daisy's Garden Veggies:
Mickey and Minnie Ears:
Clarabelle's Cupcakes:
A Bow-tique Birthday Cake:
...and Handy Helpers to help us eat all of the yummy snacks.
The kids had a blast in the ball pit....
...and fought mercilessly over the slide.
The sound of toddler laughter and toddler tantrums filled the air!
Hadley kissed two boys. I have no further comment on this.
And ingested tons of sugar....
We sang happy birthday....
And later that night after all her friends went home and things calmed down, Hadley opened her presents.
A good time was had by all! Happy second birthday to our little Minnie Mouse!
