Thing 1 & Thing 2 Birthday!

Thing 1 & Thing 2
Have Invited You
To Help Them Celebrate
As They Turn Two!


So... It took me awhile to collect all the pictures but on the 10th of October my husband and I threw the twins a Thing 1 and Thing 2 themed birthday. Of course I always pick themes that there is nothing to find for in the stores or online so all that you see came from my head.

I love the way the invitations turned out! They took me a bit to get but once I got the hang of it it was smooth sailing from there... yeah right!

I decided to have a candy buffet/bar and am so glad I did! We had gumballs, m&m's, paper dots, and I made marshmallow pops too. I must say that I'm quite proud of how well it turned out!!!


We ordered the cake from Frosted Bakery http://www.frostedbakeryonline.com/ and it tasted so good! The fish bowl was made out of rice krispies and the inside of the cake was blue and red!! Yummy!!! Everybody loved, loved, loved the way the cake looked and tasted. So did I! YUMMY!

They also made two "smashbox" cakes for the boys.


We also got them a big ball pit with so many balls!! It was such a hit!


Even the adults loved the train! Hey, we're all kids at heart right?!


I made all the Thank You buckets too and am so glad that I made a few extra because I almost ran out!


I'm beyond thrilled the way it all turned out! When it was all over I so passed out on the couch! LOL! Here are a few more pictures from the party! Many thanks to all who came!! Check out my mothers blog http://boneheadstudio.blogspot.com/2009/10/what-would-you-do.html she did an awesome rhyme to go with her set of pictures from the birthday! Hope you enjoy!
