Under the Sea Birthday Party | Full Details

Birthday, Celebrations

Well folks, you have reached the end of the posts about the girls’ Under the Sea Birthday party!

Under the sea #birthdayparty - food, activities, decorations and favors | spotofteadesigns.com

Hope it wasn’t too painful to sit through all that sweetness I’ve been sharing the past few weeks! Scroll below to see the photos and click on any links shown to see more details about the DIY / Baking projects completed for their big day!

Invitations

Birthday invitation for #birthdaytwins aka sisters who share a birthday two years apart | spotofteadesigns.com

I will tell you that it’s super hard to find invitations for 2 kids hosting a joint birthday who are not twins! I ended up landing on this one from Shutterfly where I added photos from the DIY Balloon Backdrop photoshoot we did in July.

Food & Drink

Turtle Cupcakes for Under the Sea #Birthday #Party | spotofteadesigns.com

We did the typical BBQ of hamburgers and hot dogs for the actual meal. But I got creative when it came to the cupcake desserts. I used OREO cookies and different sized M&Ms to create little sea turtles cupcakes!

When it came to the girls, I made them oversized mini cakes so there was room for those typical numbered birthday candles.

Decorations

For the decorations, I put all my energy in the dessert table, which included an octopus hanging overhead!

A photo garland documenting their first year together as #birthdaytwins hung front and center of the coordinated table set.

Birthday party guestbook - photobook for guests to sign | spotofteadesigns.com

For Brielle’s 1st birthday party, I created a photobook using photos with lots of white space to use as a guestbook. I did the same for Hailey.

Hailey’s smash cake was eaten at a high chair with a ribbon scrap garland I created!

Activities

DIY Punch Box Tutorial - create instead of a pinata and every kid gets a turn at the party! #birthdayparty | spotofteadesigns.com

Instead of a pinata I created a punch box which let each kid have a turn grabbing a prize or two!

Under the sea #birthdayparty activity - burried treasure in the sandbox | spotofteadesigns.com

I added some necklaces and other little trinkets to the sand box and let everyone dig in for buried treasure. This was a bit hit for the two older boys!

And these two just loved “wearing” the necklaces! (Obviously want to mention that this should be a supervised activity since these beaded necklaces are chocking hazard for youngsters!)

Favors

Under the sea #birthdayparty - party favors | spotofteadesigns.com

With an under the sea themed party, I thanked each child for making a big splash at our celebration with these cute little sandals tote bags.

Inside I included a game of (go) Fish, some sunnies, snacks and a colorful pencil. No one missed the typical candy treats!

Thanks so much for sticking with me these past few weeks as I shared this Under the Sea party with you, my loyal readers. The weather was HOT but the rain held off until everyone left, and we have tons of photos capturing all the fun the girls had with their family for their first (of I’m sure many) joint birthday party!

#ad Last year was tough for so many reasons, but o #ad Last year was tough for so many reasons, but one of the bright spots for us was the first year of our backyard garden! We’d call my mom on video chat for advice, took turns watering and weeding it, and eventually enjoyed all the vegetables, herbs and flowers for months. 
.
We’re currently planning ahead for this year’s garden which involves sporting our mask whenever researching plant choices. I'm partnering with @choosenewjersey to remind you to #maskupnj and social distance yourselves when you’re not staying home.

Things are changing daily in our state, but you can keep yourself informed with the latest updates on COVID by visiting https://covid19.nj.gov and downloading the free app for info on symptoms and exposure notification.

Do you have any suggestions on easy to maintain plants for our garden?
