Yo Gabba Gabba Birthday Party!

Madison LOVES Yo Gabba Gabba (as you all probably know by now), so I decided to do her 2nd birthday party with a Yo Gabba Gabba theme. I first started with the invitations. Our good friend, Jamie, made the cutest Yo Gabba Gabba invitations.  Next, I had to make the guest list.  Our guest list has grown over the year, so we ended up having around 95 people at the party. Since we were going to have so many people, I ended up just doing it at the house, in the backyard, which was perfect, expect for the wind. I had a balloon arch made for the driveway, but that was ruined by the wind. I also bought a stand up Foofa and Brobee for the party, which Madison just adored. I tried my hardest to find an actual character to come to her party, but had no luck since it is a licensed show. As for other things, I ended up making table runners for ever table in the colors of the characters: red, light blue, yellow, lime green, and pink.  I ran out of time before the party to take any pictures, so I do not really have any good pictures of the tables or decorations. :( My friend Alice made the best cake, cake pops, cookies, and cupcakes. They were all amazing and looked just like the characters. I was able to make the goodie bags myself. I did them in the different characters and put the cookies and ice cream sidewalk chalk in them. I think they turned out pretty cute! Also, thanks to our friend's Caycee and Todd, we had a jump castle at the party for the kids. Madison loved it and I think I may just have to buy her one. I also ordered 2 of the Yo Gabba Gabba characters off of etsy that had their faces cut out, so they kids could take their pictures. However, they still hadn’t shown up an hour before the party. They did show up eventually and we were able to capture some photos of the kids. Over all the party was great. Madison had a great time and got lots of great presents. We are so blessed to have such great family and friends. Here are some pictures from the party and opening all her presents the next day!

              

* The balloon arch was supposed to be over the driveway—However, the wind had other plans for it :( Also, we hadn’t brought out all the food on the food table. I just wanted to make sure I had some sort of picture before.
