Today is August 1st! 43 days until applications open!!!
So, I haven’t been blogging over the past week or updated the Interactive Calendar. Unfortunately, a nasty summer cold has been going around and we got it:( . Thank goodness, we are finally up and running again! I am so sorry to my faithful readers; thank you for your patience.
Now, a must for any Disney family: a Mickey and Minnie birthday bash!! We celebrated my twins’ third birthday with a Mickey and Minnie party and they loved it!! Complete with giant balloons and the piece de resistance: a Disney bounce house!!! Even the adults bounced like Tigger! Check out your local party inflatable dealer and ask if they have the Disney bounce house and Party City has TONS of Mickey and Minnie party decor items, matching balloons and favors.
I was very proud of my table centerpieces; Mickey and Minnie holding the balloons. Here’s how to do this project:
1 can of soup (This is the weight to hold down the balloons.)
1 Mickey Mouse treat bag or any plain, colored treat bag
1 small plush Mickey Mousetoy
curling ribbon
bunch of balloons (I got a mylar “Happy Birthday” Mickey balloon and two “3” birthday, latex balloons)
- Put soup can in treat bag and tie closed with a rubberband.
- Use ribbon to tie Mickey to the treat bag (tie around the rubberband).
- Tie the bunch of balloons to the treat bag (again, around the rubberband). Be sure to leave some of the ribbon hanging off the can.
- Wrap the ribbons that are hanging off the can around Mickey’s hand.
I also did this with Minnie Mouse and Donald Duck. If you lots of plush Disney friends, you can create centerpieces for the whole gang!
Now what celebration is complete without cake? None!! Now here are cupcakes that even the Mad Hatter would like to eat at his “unbirthday” party. The cupcakes were iced with blue and pink icing and crowned with a Mickey and a Minnie toothpick topper. Super cute!
