Birthday number 2!! And then she will be three in three days!! Why!? Although it’s so sad to watch your babies grow, I am so excited to get to year T H R E E with our Mia girl!! I feel like we are just about over the crazy two hill…
For her second birthday I wanted to do a fun summer theme! Of course a flamingo theme was the winner! I was so excited to play with all the pink décor I could find!!
“Let’s Flamingle”! That was the phrase for the party! I made these fun banners to hang above the food table simply from prints that I cut into circles! I glued them to some fun string and that was it! I always make sure to check the $1 bin at Target! That’s where I found the gold glitter letters!
Simple and lots of pink!! That’s what I was going for! Pink donuts, pink lemonade, pink cupcakes, and pink cake balls! For the main dish I made the yummiest pulled pork for sandwiches and homemade coleslaw! It added the perfect tropical vibe to the Flamingo theme!
The weather ended up being super windy, but we were able to set up tables outside!! Pink, white, and green, with a touch of gold! I loved the “happy birthday” balloons I found on Brickyardbuffalo.com! They added the perfect touch! For the centerpieces I was able to snag the last peonies for the season!! I always love adding fresh flowers to my parties! They are such an easy and beautiful touch. The palm leaves from the centerpieces and the food table were from Oriental Trading! They have everything you need there!!
It was so much fun planning and throwing the girliest party!! I am still obsessed with the flamingo dress I found, at Nordstrom Rack, for Mia! I mean could it getting anymore perfect!?
