With us going to Disneyland in just a few short weeks and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse being one of the few shows Ethan will watch I thought a Mickey Mouse themed birthday party was the perfect idea.
Let me set the stage for you. We have a pretty small house so in order for both sides of the family to attend Ethan's party we had it at Jared's work in the gym. I sent out these adorable invitations...
My wonderful and thoughtful friend Brittney gave Ethan this adorable Mickey Mouse that I used as the center piece.
I made Mickey Mouse cupcakes
I had ears for the kids to wear
And treat bags to take home
We played a bean bag toss game that Jared and I made and Jenny made the cute bean bags...
Then we played duck, duck, goose only the kids said Mickey, Mickey, Mouse. This game seemed to be a big hit. Even the older kids enjoyed this game.
Then we played find Pluto's bones. I didn't get any pictures of this game but in some of my photos you can see white bones taped on the wall. The game was like an Easter egg hunt. They had to find 4 bones and when they found them they brought them to me and I gave them their treat bag.
Next we open presents...
I think the party was a big hit. I worked really hard on it and really enjoyed the out come. Thanks to everyone who came and helped us celebrate Ethan's 2nd Birthday!

Okay, you really put us all to shame! At least me and my birthday parties. Such a cute idea and i love the games. It's crazy that you have a 2 year old, huh?

Oh my goodness! Has it really been TWO YEARS!?!?! Wow! Ethan looks like such a big boy! His Mickey Mouse party sounds like it was SO fun! Good job Shan! I miss you!
Happy Birthday Eathan! What a fun party! What a great family! Shan, I love the cupcake idea--very cute and they seem do-able for a non-artistic one like myself...I'll log that one a way for later.
