Maddox & Ryder's Beach Bash Party ~ The Details

On Sunday June 14th we threw Maddox and Ryder a Beach Bash Birthday Party.  I let the boys decide where they wanted their party this year and they chose the splash pad…the same location we had it 2 years ago.


It was a super hot day so the Splash Pad made the perfect spot for the party.  If only us adults would have taken advantage of running through the water it would have been perfect. 

Chocolate Covered Pretzel Rods….so easy and always one of my favorites!!


I’m trying to simplify the party as they get older and this year I realized it was so simple because I already had almost all of the décor…craft supplies…etc.  Colors start repeating themselves after 6 years of parties.



A girl that my Mom goes to church with made the cake and I think she did a fabulous job.  It not only looked super cute but was probably one of the best birthday cakes I’ve ever eaten.


These were a Pinterest find that my Mom made….anything that deals with food, I delegate out to her!!




Little Debbie hooked me up this year with her individually wrapped beach themed cakes!!


My incredibly talented Mom made the Flip Flop cookies!



She also carved the shark!!  She can do anything…I’m pretty sure of it!


I found the cute seashells on the 80% off aisle at Hobby Lobby.  They were gold and black so I sprayed a little spray paint over them and they fit right it.  I now am using they in my house for summer décor so that money was well spent!!









I’m not a gummy fan but everyone seemed to love these shark gummies!!












The boys had already been through the water before we got our family pic so they had some good lookin hair!! lol!

It was a fun memorable time…Part 2 up next!
