Nautical Birthday Party



This past Monday, my little one turned 2.  To celebrate, we had family and friends to our house for a Nautical Party the day before.


I made Nautical Cookies, using the various tutorials from The Sweet Adventures of Sugarbelle.

We also had some birthday cupcakes.  Nothing fancy here, a box of dark chocolate cake mix, frosted with a standard cream cheese frosting (and topped with starfish cookies!)


The weather was gorgeous, so we were outside the entire time.  Kids played in a bounce house our wonderful neighbors lent us for the day (though somehow I didn’t get a single picture of the kids playing in said bounce house).

All of the children enjoyed the sandbox.


And we also set up an obstacle course!  The kids loved it!

    I will have to show my daughter all of your ideas. She is going to do a spongebob party for her son that turns 2 in Nov but she wants very little spongebob - lol she wants more like nautical theme with a little spongebob thrown in.
