Recent Family Fun – A Beach Bash Birthday Party

August 17, 2011

The other weekend we went to this AMAZING Beach Bash put together by my friend Jen They are old neighbor friends of ours and we were celebrating their sweet baby girl’s 2nd Birthday Party! I remember her first birthday.. (time flies!) Her mommy always goes above and beyond to make her day special! I always look forward to this party every year because you know she is going to create something fabulous. Check out her beach cupcakes that are BEYOND CUTE.

I didn’t have my camera with me this day 
(we were in the middle of a move…craziness.)
But I asked if I could share her facebook photos
 because the world needs to see her awesomeness. 
and she said yes. ;)
If you haven’t checked out Jen’s blog yet…you should! 
she has a great sense of humor with motherhood..
and her posts always make me laugh.

Budget friendly party – they had all the beach party supplies on hand already from a previous party in the family! she had tents up for different areas (cupcakes, presents, face painting, snacks and drinks) there was a slip n slide ‘soak zone’..and everyone brought beach towels and hung out picnic style..total beach vibe! I wish we could have stayed longer but it was a busy/crazy day. Just glad I got to wish the birthday girl a happy birthday and check out the fun party! AMAZING JOB JEN. but I’ve told you that already.. ;)
The birthday girl was getting her face painted for the first time..
and it lasted about 45 seconds. haha.
Sophia lovedddd the face painting.. and the buckets full of goodies that she got to take home! (Jen had them hanging along the fence with each child’s name on it.) On the way home we had two baby girls in the back seat wearing sunglasses haha. and ben and I were eating the fruit snacks. shh. don’t tell our children.
