Flashback Party: Jayden turns twooo twooo!

We celebrated Jayden’s second birthday in January with a train themed party & it turned out really cute so I wanted to share all the details! For those of you who know Jayden, he is obsessed with choo choos, so I knew he would be over the moon with this party theme.

I wanted to create a central focus that really showcased the theme rather than having little splashes of it all over the house, so I turned our kitchen island into the food/dessert bar & put most of the effort there. J made me an awesome backdrop (he is handy like that!) and I attached coordinating streamers to it.

My mom made the cake after I gave her a vague description of the theme/colors...and it was crazy how perfect it matched everything on the table. We topped it with one of the Thomas trains Jayden got for Christmas, and it turned into the centerpiece! And of couse there were cupcakes! My grandma gave me the cupcake liners for Christmas that coordinated perfectly.

I bought the red & blue bags from Michaels & filled them with kettle corn (made from Scratch! ..haha..ok I bought the bags you pop in the microwave) and the take out boxes are packed with BBQ potato chips. Everything was made to grab & go...and utensil free! Oh and that bean dip you see in the background was made by Auntie Jess and it disappeared in about 5 minutes after the party started! :) Yum!

 The handy hubby made the Jayden crossing sign for the front yard, while I worked on the choo choo track for the entryway...

What party would be complete without a few games for the adults and a jumpy for the kiddos?? 

Thanks for coming aboard and I hope everyone is having a great weekend!
