Munchkin #2 is actually having a birthday party this year! She’s always wanted an outdoor birthday party… her birthday is December 20th… yeah, you do the math…
The past two years we’ve said that we’d put it off and have a half-birthday in the summer, but when summer rolled around, she wasn’t really all that enthusiastic about having it. Before you get all up in my grill, we DID actually have a family celebration for her… I’m just talking about a party with her school friends.
So this year we’re having a swim party in Dec… yup, you heard me right. A swim party. Thankfully it’s an indoor swim center, complete with slides, a lazy river, and a water-filled jungle gym.
So her theme? Owls. Yeah, don’t ask me how owls and swimming fit in together, but we’re going with it anyway.
I’ll let you know how it all turns out.
A couple of things I worked out so far (I know, I know… the party’s on Monday!)…
~The favors are going to be dollar store travel mugs filled with a packet of hot cocoa and marshmallows. I also found a site where you can print your own 2011 Owl Calendar, so I’ll be adding those into the mix as well.
~The invitations and some of the decorations is coming from Amy over at Living Locurto… I fell in love with this set from her shop… I am SO doing these Owl Smores!!!!
~I’m hoping to have some other things up my sleeve, but we’ll see if I ever get around to any of them…
Procrastinate? Who, me???
