And She's Two!

Ten days ago we celebrated Claire's birthday. My little baby turned two. Her latest interest is Minnie Mouse so I decided that she should have a Minnie Mouse birthday luncheon. I didn't do a full birthday party because I figure at two she doesn't know and doesn't care. So we invited the grandparents and celebrated Claire with a Minnie Mouse lunch.

For the occasion I hunted up Pinterest for Minnie Mouse ideas and used my own creativity to finish it up. In the end we ate Minnie Mouse Sandwiches (I baked the bread myself so that it would be in the shape of a Minnie Mouse Head, the ears are a little small I know, but I ran out of dough). I was proud of the sandwich if only because I came up with it and not Pinterest. We also had Minnie Mouse shaped veggie chips I found at the store, Minnie Mouse Watermelon, and a Minnie Mouse Cake. Claire had fun, and loved all her presents.

For the decorations I used a Mickey Mouse sandwich cutter as a stencil and cut out silhouettes out of black paper and hung red crepe paper. I also got her red and white balloons and hung red and black spirals from the ceiling. All in all a nice and low key birthday part.
