On March 1st (Krue's actual birthday) we had a birthday party for Kiefer's 2nd and Krue's 4th birthdays. It was cowboy themed... and I had so much fun with it! I put signs at the front and back doors that read "Come on in for a rootin' tootin' good time!"... labeled the bathroom as the "Outhouse"... the food as the "Grub"... and the old fashion root beer bottles & water bottles in a tin as "The Watering Hole". The boys dressed up in cowboy hats, bandannas, and cowboy boots. I made "Wanted" posters and hung them all over the house for everyone to look at. I had the guests snack on peanuts in the shell "Rodeo Munchies"... and we had food that went along with the cowboy theme... barbecued pulled pork, baked beans (thanks Mamaw), summer sausage & cheese (thanks Sam & Beth), yummy overnight salad (thanks Mom), and veggies.
We had family over at 4pm for dinner & presents, and then invited some Auburn friends (Neal & Mel, Shane & Kelli, Jeff & Rachelle) and their kids (Lauren & Graham, Ian & Anna, Livia & Reece) over for cake & ice cream. We had cowboy hats for the kids and the ice cream was served in plastic cowboy boots!
At one point we had 10 kids under the age of Five in our living room! We wouldn't have done it any other way :)
