Happy 2nd Birthday!!

This weekend we celebrated Max's 2nd Birthday!?! WHAT?? I just cannot believe he will be 2 on Wednesday. It just doesn't seem right!! We had the best time with friends and family and are so grateful to them all!! (We are also so thankful for the beautiful weather we had on Saturday so the kids were able to play outside!)

This year we did an airplane theme. Max loves airplanes just about more than anything (well maybe not Curious George)!! Max's mom may take a theme TOO far, but it is SO much fun!!

Here is his invitation - isn't it the cutest little boarding pass!

The front of the house had balloons and his birthday banner. We lined the stairs with yellow cones - too cute! Here was the welcome sign on the front door.

Here was the "Baggage Claim" where all the goody bags were located!!
Obviously, this picture was taken after the party. But the goody bags were my favorite!! They were suitcases. We filled them with little pilot ducks, airline wings (thanks to Becky!!), crayons in the shape of planes, plane cookies, a plane kazoo, and, of course, a bag of pretzels! I just thought they were SOOOO cute!!!

Here are a couple of the pilot ducks!

These were the decorations hanging throughout the house - planes and clouds!


We covered all the card tables with white paper and drew clouds and planes on the paper. We put some of the airplane crayons on the tables and let the kids color.

The Crayons - SO cute!!
McNulty International!!!



Getting Ready for Cake!!!!







Here is Pilot Max sitting in his "plane" (His plane high chair was my favorite decoration!)

Isn't his party hat so cute with the airplane on it!?!I couldn't believe how well Max did with everyone singing Happy Birthday. He acted a little shy but he didn't cry. He even blew out his candles!!


He LOVES cake!! LOVE THE PLANE CHAIR!!! Mmm!

The kids playing outside!!
HOW cute is this picture!!!
Blowing bubbles!
How sweet?!
We were so overwhelmed with all the wonderful gifts Max received. Thanks EVERYONE SO very much!! Here he is playing with all his new toys! And here Max, after the party, sneaking some bites of cake - guess he really liked the cake!!

Here is a fun video of Max sneaking cake! Remember to go directly to the blog to view the video.

I hope you all enjoyed your peek into our party. Kelly is absolutely the best husband and dad! He totally indulges me and helps out SO much!! We had a great time and TOTALLY could not have done it without all the help of Sugah, my dad and Kelley - and of course our special friend Amy who makes things shine!!

We had a fantastic weekend and can't wait to celebrate Max's birthday on Wednesday and then again in West Memphis with my family on Sunday after church. Have a great week!!! Hugs and love!!

I love this airplane theme! I want to do one for my son--we call him Ace. And I think a Flying Ace party would be awesome! Thanks for the great ideas!

Adorable! We did an airplane theme for my son's 1st birthday and actually used some of those same ideas. Your airplane high chair looks awesome!
