Tilly's "Oh Two-dles" Birthday Bash!

This past weekend we had a few of Tilly's little toddler friends over and some family and celebrated our big girl.  Last year for her 1st birthday we invited EVERYONE and it was just so crowded.  This year we had it much smaller, and it was so much less stressful. 

The morning of her party the power decided to randomly shut off for no reason around 6:45am. Cue panic mode for me! I immediately called and reported the outage and was given an estimated time of 9am for it to be restored.. and her party started at 11am!  I called my mom (who lives around the corner) to see if her power was on and thank goodness it was.  We booked it over so I could shower and get ready while she entertained Tilly.  Luckily it did come back on right at 9am and the rest of the day went perfect. 

I am totally the "Pinterest" mom and love crafting and having it all themed.  From the food to gift bags to décor.. we were ALL about Mickey.  I had it set up as an outdoor water party so the kids could go nuts in all her water activities and not be fighting over all the toys inside, as we all know toddlers do (well at least mine does!)! It was a huge hit and Tilly had a BLAST!! That girl was laughing and playing all day. It was the best day.

Along with the food shown below, Lance smoked a pork butt all night for the adults. It was delicious and completely gone by the end of the party!

 Thank you so much to everyone who came and helped celebrate our sweet girl!

And girl moms.. if your little one is OBSESSED with your make-up like mine is, you MUST get this make-up set! It looks so real, but its completely fake so NO mess! Tilly LOVES it!!!!

Now for pictures and décor info! :)
















 



 




 

 















 
 



 

 


 On décor (and gift bags seen above) I did mostly all home-made and was very generously given some things by Christina who blogs at Carolina Charm! I kept the costs as low as possible and just tried to focus on the fun! :)
