Carnival Birthday Party

My Drewby is 7!!!  This year's party theme was "carnival"... so, so fun and full of possibilities.  Luckily, both Hobby Lobby and Party City have a party line of carnival themed items.  Plus I scored several items from Target's $1 spot for party favors.

I kept the decorations pretty simple...



The first thing kids wanted to do was play in the bouncy house we rented for the day:



This was the main attraction!  But we also played some fun old fashioned games.  We had a potato sack race and raced with plastic eggs on spoons.



The kids loved both games enough to play a few times each.

I also had a little photo area set up:


The kids came in and ate pizza, drank kool-aid and had cupcakes/cake.




Each guest took home a treat (circus peanuts or cotton candy in the plastic containers you see above) and a party favor that included these items from the $1 spot at Target:


Drew was one happy boy!  He had such a blast with his friends!
