Elijah's Curious George Bash!!

My summer baby turned 2 this year! And since he is starting to get into that whole adventurous, mischievous, curious stage and not to mention loves, Loves, LOVES Curious George....we thought that would make a fun theme. My husband and I love having friends and family over so birthday parties are always nice.

As every birthday party- I pretty much did all the decorations and had amazing help with the food. {Love my fam} I made the Spanish Rice, Sausage with Peppers, Pineapple/Strawberry Sherbert Punch, Caramel Apple Slices, Festive Popcorn, Chocolate Covered Strawberries and 4 tier Chocolate Cake! Nom Nom. My grandma helped with the chicken fajitas, my awesome MIL helped with her signature potato salad and my prego sister helped me with every little monkey's favorite dessert...banana pudding of course! lol

It was hot summer day but surprisingly not as hot as your typical 1st of July days. Our guest first ate, then we opened presents, the pinata was next and finally cake! Eli normally gets more clothes than toys but this year he received mostly big sized toys and summer outfits {Score!} Since Elijah's birthday and Jared's are only 6 days apart...we thought we'd celebrate both birthdays and Jared was dressed as the "Man in the Yellow Hat". All in all, I was super satisfied at the end of the day because I got to spend time with loved ones and Elijah had a fun day! I just love throwing parties.....especially themed kid's birthday parties! :)
