We are so excited to celebrate the girls birthdays together with a pool party in a few weeks!! After two close birthday parties last year for each of them, I decided that together was definitely the way to go this year. Obviously for planning reasons, but also because one of my favorite memories as a kid was always celebrating with my brother since we both had August birthdays. I am three years (and two weeks) older than him, which is almost the exact age difference between Waverly & Avalon. I hope they will love it just as much, and that this can become a tradition for them as well, although I am fully aware that this could totally backfire on me and they will refuse to share their special day ever again. We shall see.
As the girls get older, I am quickly learning that some fun food and decor just doesn’t cut it anymore, they need something to do and the pool seemed like the best option for that! I got them some super cute suits (from one of my favorite swim shops here), and will be going pretty laid-back, some cook-out food from the grill and a few fun pool games. I know the kids will be most excited to swim, so that makes it super easy!!! 🙂
You know I love a good invite, I was actually going through the girls baby books the other night looking through all the invites from their birthday parties/showers, they bring back the best memories and I hope they will love to look at them one day. We teamed up again with our friends at Minted this year, and it turned out so cute and fun! We did some pictures at my grandparents pool (where the party will be!) for the back of the card, and they had so much fun doing them.
We went with the last picture for the back of the card, and used this invite. The final product came super fast and was high-quality as usual, we just love Minted so much!
Hope this gives you some inspiration for a party of your own! Can’t wait to share details & images from the party afterwards, happiest birthday to our summer girls! XO
So so so so cute!
These pictures are so perfect! I love them all, but especially the last one! Adorable invites.
Adorable! Planning a summer birthday party for my almost one year old right now and it's so fun! Although I agree, it's nice to have something to "do." We're hanging a pinata, throwing out some picnic blankets and the sprinkler. There are SO many adorable flamingo party accessories right now, I can't wait to see your end result!
LOVE! So cute!!
Ohhhh mahhh gash those invites!!! TOO CUTE! I can't wait to see the rest of the party!!
OMG no way!!! I am doing a joint party this year too haha! But that's because daddy is going to be gone for both kids actual birthdays this year 🙁 so this will be the best comprise for them so daddy can celebrate too!!
Eek, the party sounds like it will be epic! And I'm totally adoring the invite.
My brother and I are both September birthdays and are three years and nine days apart 🙂 We used to have joint parties too until I got old enough and demanded my own LOL.
SO CUTE!!! Love the invite, and I'm in love with the flamingo! That was Julia's theme last year, and I kind of want to do it all over again.
