Before I continue though, I wanted to first share a picture of her actual party invitation card since the last one I posted on here was an e-invite image.
Anyway, the card says it all... The party was a Sesame Street inspired party...
In the hopes for at least a cloudy day, we still went ahead and decorated and set up the front and backyard...
But as expected, it sure wasn't a sunny day that swept the clouds away! LOL! The sun only came out for a bit and then mostly rain and it was really cold. So we had to move a lot of stuffs back in the house. And even though I've been stressing about the weather, thinking that it's gonna be too crowded inside the house... It actually wasn't so bad and we all had a great time!
Here's her Sweet Table that had to be set up at the garage LOL!!!
Remember my vent about the cake? LOL... Well, I still wish it had been done... I still wish the cake designer did not back out on me like that. But I'm glad that I found a not-so-bad one at Wal-Mart! LOL! I have to get two separate cakes though to make it a two-tiered cake myself because if you ask for a two tier cake made, they consider it as a wedding cake and it costs a whole lot LOL!!! Weird and stupid but oh well... I found something ok so I'm not gonna throw a fit.
Ahhh the sesame street cupcakes... simply made out of colored icings, candy melts, peanut m&ms, oreos, chips ahoy and bugles chips! LOL!!!!!
Here's the lamp post that Noel made and the backdrop. I got this image from Aaron over at flickr, with permission to edit and use of course. I am also planning to sell the backdrop too but I have to go to the post office to check the shipping prices before I do. So if you're having a sesame street party in the future... let me know! I will definitely set up my etsy soon ;)
And yay! The happy birthday girl! She really had a blast! And I'm glad she did!!! Everything paid off! And thanks to those who came and joined the fun! If you're wondering where are the pictures of the food... uh... LOL... I didn't get to take much shot of it... a lot of our friends came early so as soon as the dish is ready... serve! LOL!
Now before I sign off... And aside from my family that helped made this party happened, there are certain friends and vendors that I want to give credit to...

ReplyDeleteHi Rachel, yes! I still do have the backdrop... the weather has been real bad that I haven't had the chance to go to the post office to inquire about the shipping cost. I will this week :)
ReplyDeleteas for the light post. We just printed out the street sign and stick it on a cardboard then stick it on a tube with a ball as the light that my husband made LOL!
