Come Sit Stay!

 

Invitation 

I was in love with doing this party! I had so much fun.

My aunt came and helped me decorate the mantle and it's probably my favorite part! We made all the decorations together 

I had this vision of it all being split down the middle 

Carolina's side was inspired by polka dot puppy collection. 

Adopt a puppy stations! 

 

They could play fetch, decorate a bag and doggy certificate and give them a checkup 

Entry way 

The two older girls got a different goodie bag, with paw print letter patches and a fuzzy initial charm. 

Cake 

It came out just like I wanted! I made the picks for it so it would match the decor. It's supposed to look like a muddy puppy splashed mud onto the girly tutu side of things 

Dog towel in the kitchen 

Dog cheese bone that looked highly inappropriate after people ate the first half!

Pawsta salad

Fruit salad cake balls and dog biscuits 

Pigs n blankets Scooby snacks donut holes and sausage balls 

Puppy cups for the guests 

Cinnamon rolls quiche and kolaches 

Iced coffee station 

Little puppy at the front door 

Carolina was super excited about everything being decorated! I had mixed pink with the blue on the cake table and she went and put the pink with pink and blue with blue lol

He was being SO uncooperative for picture 

How she felt about her guests arriving 

Hiding behind presents

We sang happy birthday to beau first and then Carolina cried when it was her turn. I was so upset because the party must go on and I couldn't stop and reason with her I had to serve cake. My good friend Melanie suggested we try again and brought me candle for her slice and Carolina did okay when people weren't paying attention to her. It ended up being sweet because I asked Carolina if mommy and daddy could sing and she said yes so we sat next to her and quietly sang and the room got quiet and everyone joined in. I'm so glad Melanie could see I was emotional and ready to cry over it because her idea worked great 

Presents were chaotic! I had pictured them sitting in their chairs and giving them each a present and that's not at all what happened! 

All in all this was the best party we've ever had! Both the kids had a great time and did amazing with the crowd 

Happy birthday babies! We love you 💗💙
