2/365 and we had ourselves a little party

Kaeden and I have birthdays 5 days apart

and as he had a birthday party for his friends outside the house

for the first time this year

I quickly realized that his annual parties were just as much

about him and his friends as it was about me having a gathering

at the end of the year with my friends & family.

We decided to throw a "u & me" themed party with some of our favourite things

such as pickles, ham/cheese ball, appetizers, Scott's ribs, an ice cream Sundae buffet, lots of yellow etc...

This is a picture of all our wonderful cards we received and the wonderful gifts I received (my friends/family know me well as I received gorgeous jewellery, a wonderful camera photo album and keychain,Starbucks, Indigo and the KEG gift cards.

~ as it was about our favourite I had to have a Mommy's Little Helper Hot and Cold drink to share

Hot Chocolate and Bailey's

Amaretto and Coke

~ I set up a craft station for the children to decorate their own favour bags and then pick which treats they wanted to put into their bags.
~ a popular choice, a pink hot wheels car
The food was wonderful

we had the hockey game on (which we won)

I had dear and wonderful friends and family around me

and got to celebrate with my favourite little man

the night was a DEFINITE win.

Here is the invitation I sent out:
