Lollipops

Simple little party to celebrate a baby boy’s Baptism.

When Brox was 6 months old I started planning and pinning for his 1st birthday party. I had so many “theme” ideas but wanted to save those for when he was bigger and could enjoy them more so I decided to go with a super traditional primary colored party in our backyard.

I wasn’t planning on making a big deal for “the second’s” birthday, but then I felt guilty, so at midnight, I crept into the basement to collect things I had laying around to decorate and make our small little gathering a little more special.

For sister’s baby shower, I had found a cute “she’s about the pop” theme. We had several kinds of popcorn, party favour bags had pop rocks, lollipops, etc. I could have pushed it more on the pop theme but I held back. I’m not much of a theme person and this was my first attempt at it. Always budget conscious I made all the decorations. I even attempted to make cupcakes (gotta learn how to ice properly…). All in all it was a lot of fun and a I had a great time DIYing the decorations!

Sienna’s Second Birthday Party – Theme:Candy and lollipops I saw a party on tomkat studios and thought it was adoreable. Then I started looking around on the internet and found many ideas.
