Mickey Mouse Clubhouse - 2nd Birthday Party

My daughter's 2nd birthday was earlier this month, and the theme was soooo easy to choose. Her favorite show is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. She asks every morning if it's time for Mickey yet. We had all the grandparents, 2 aunts & a cousin, and 4 little friends at our house for quite a fun morning. Here's a little taste of it all...

THE INVITATION

DOOR SIGN WELCOMING GUESTS

(Aaaargh! I cannot figure out how to rotate a pic when it uploads wrong. It was the right direction in my browser. Anyone have a tip?)

BEVERAGE STATION

Straw sippies for the kids with milk or juice. Water for the grown-ups with an assortment of Crystal Light singles to mix in.

THE FOOD

Recipe idea from Disney Junior website. Big hit with the kiddos! (We also had regular pizza for the grown-ups.)

THE CAKE

Decorated using template from Disney Junior.

THE FAVORS

I forgot to take the picture before most of the kids left - there were a few more bags and ears. I made the ears from craft foam using a template from - where else? - Disney Junior. The favor bags included MMC coloring pages from Disney Junior, fruit snacks, a Mickey sticker sheet, and a crayon roll that I made (will post about soon). The kids also got to take their ears home. I got the Toodles clip art from Momma Did It.

Here are some pics of Annelise enjoying her party:

Taking it all in. She's wearing the Minnie Mouse costume I made her for Halloween.

Enjoying her food. Such a little lady!

Finally got her Minnie ears on her for a few minutes while she was distracted by all the presents!

Think she's ready for cake?

The proper way to eat your cake when you're a 2 year old! (At least she's using a fork instead of her hands. That's the bright side, right?)

All in all, Annelise had a great time at her party. Hope you enjoyed taking a peek at our festivities.

Happy crafting,
