Remembering Chaos: Bear's Bubble Party

Thursday, June 23, 2016

This past weekend we hosted a 2nd birthday party for Littlest Miss. I am not going to lie, at first I thought about skipping a party all together under the reasoning that she really doesn't comprehend parties and wouldn't have missed not having one. However, mom guilt shortly took over and I felt compelled to throw her a party -- mostly because I had internally promised myself that whatever we'd done for Little Miss, we'd do for Littlest Miss...and the thought of Littlest Miss looking at pictures of her sissy's 2nd birthday party one day and then asking to see her's broke my heart.

So I immediately got to party planning.

And compared to other parties this was relatively tame. No over the top favors. Not a ton of guests. Just a few "bubble" related items and our closest friends.

Needless to say, despite the "simplicity" (ha!) of the party, everyone had a blast.

Here are a few pics from the celebration.

The "Pop" Corn bar and cakes

(yes, cakes. No one ate the little cake but it makes walking the cake to the birthday kid easier and no one has to worry about eating spit on cake, because let's be honest, when a two year old blows out candles, there is definitely spit flying everywhere).

A Close up of the Cake

I ordered a plain cake from Costco with the Happy Bday writing on the cake. I then added the bottle of bubbles, the sprinkles and the bubbles (plastic fillable ornaments). Needless to say, I am super happy with how it turned out.

The Birthday Girl on Her Water Bubble

Seriously, this was the biggest hit of the party. We will definitely be making more this summer! Here's the link to the instructions (of course found initially on Pinterest)
