Photo Friday: A Mickey Mouse 2nd Birthday

Following yesterday's outfit post, I'm sharing photos from Zoey's Mickey Mouse-themed 2nd Birthday party (February 3rd).  I had a blast making most of the decorations & planning a party.  My grandmother unexpectedly passed away & we had to travel to Iowa instead of hosting family up here.  We were fairly sure Zoey wouldn't have a party considering the circumstances, but I packed the decorations along just in case (huge perk of driving, you can pack as much as you want).

We went for breakfast the morning of her birthday & the party sort of fell together at the breakfast table.  It was so last minute, I messaged invites to family members at 11am for a party to start at 3pm....and you know what? All of them made it! I'm so thankful & grateful to everyone who made time to come help her celebrate, it really meant so much to all of us! Enjoy the photos :)

Found the perfect Mickey sweatshirt on F21, perfect for a cozy house party :)
DIY'ed these red photo frames from a previous baby shower & ordered 24 pairs of ears as favors (via Ebay)
DIY'ed the highchair banner & ordered a same-height-as-Zoey mickey Balloon (she LOVED it, via Ebay).
A close up of the highchair banner.  I used both fabric & ribbon because I liked the mix better.
Make-shift backdrop out of table covers (via Michael's) & ordered this banner from eBay.
We decided on hot dogs/sausages, cheesy potatoes, a few salads & cake...easy menu options for a last minute event!
DIY'ed napkin rings our of leftover ribbon (ribbon via Michael's)
DIY'ed these sparkly Mickey centerpieces with foam balls, spray adhesive, & loads of black glitter :)
Our birthday girl, chowing down on her healthy bday dinner haha
Last minute party requires a last-minute Dairy Queen cake, which the bday girl LOVED!
Oh my goodness, she's so spoiled & loved :)
