Ethan's Airplane Birthday Party


This weekend we celebrated Ethan's 2nd Birthday with an Airplane Birthday Party.  He has been spotting airplanes for months and after our recent vacation with 4 flights...we were certain "Airplanes" were the way to 'go'!  He would scream and jump at the airport every time one came in for a landing!  It was quite entertaining while waiting on our own plane to arrive.  

We had the party at our home in the back yard.  We had a water table, sandbox, kiddie pool, sprinkler ball,  and more of  Ethan's outdoor toys for all the kids.  I am certain Ethan had a great time at this party! He seemed so excited to see all of his friends and the party decorations after waking up from his nap.    

Every guest received their own "boarding pass" invitation with seat number

After the party Ethan's guests went to baggage claim to pick up their party favors

Party favors were cloud cookies

and these balsa wood airplanes

Later that night Ethan tore into his gifts

Ethan's buddy Zane spent the night for their first sleep over!  
This is a photo of them cracking up in their pajamas before bedtime.  

Thank your for everyone who came to celebrate our little bear turning two!  It means so much to have you there to celebrate a 2nd amazing year for Ethan.  We love you all.

Airplane theme is really good for kiddos. My little one is also turning seven next month. And arranging a party is on cards. Will book one of the pleasing event space San Francisco for kids. Snacks liked by them will be ordered with soft drinks. Cup cakes of rainbow theme and plane theme for cakes are decided after seeing your share.
