We celebrated Dustin’s birthday Sunday night since we’ll be gone on our vacation on his actual birthday. I’m a HUGE sucker for throwing a themed-birthday party. I LOVE THEM! My mom always threw my sister and I themed birthday parties, so I told Dustin that this is most likely his last year of getting a themed party since hopefully next summer we’ll have a baby!!!
I realized a few things about Sunday night:
1. I need to take more pictures
2. I need to document that people actually attended
Dustin loves watching the Braves and this season has been extra fun watching them since they’ve been pretty good! Because of that, I threw him an Atlanta Braves Baseball Party!!
We grabbed a quick picture before the party started and I’m glad we did because this was our only one all night!
The rest of the pictures are food set-up. I decided to serve “ballpark food” aka food you’d buy in the ballpark.
One of the foods I served was a Frito pie. I went ahead and got the trays prepped with the fritos so our guests only had to add the cheese and chili if they wanted. I ordered these trays on Amazon!
I ordered the baseball plates and napkins from Amazon and had those set out at the beginning of the line. Then I borrowed two tiered galvanized stands to set out hotdogs and bags of chips. Dustin grilled the hotdogs early, and I wrapped them in foil in their buns–kind of like when you buy them at a ball field.
This was the other side. The hotdogs went on the bottom tiers of both stands and condiments went in the red tray on the right.
You can’t really see it on the sign, but it says “Welcome to ShaneyField”–I loved it! I had out a bucket of Cracker Jacks and a few bags of Big League Chew as favors. The cake was out of this world delicious!!!
Happy early birthday, D, and I can’t wait to celebrate your real birthday at the beach!!
LOVE how you celebrated your man with such a cool theme. I'm a sucker for themed parties too! So fun and memorable!
