{Real Party} Seasame Street for the young at HEART

Last year I asked my husband what he wanted to do for his 28th birthday and
he replied (jokingly I might add), “Sesame Street!”
After giving him a strange look I thought about it and decided to just go with it.Â
So, there came the idea for his 28th birthday party,
Â
“Brought to you by the Letter B”
His favorite Sesame Street character is Grover so I made sure Grover made it onto the invitations.
 |
| I made the invitations using a collage technique and then topped it with some fun googly eyes. |
The party was RIGHT before leaving to head to Oklahoma for my sister’s wedding (which I was planning) so we kept decor and food pretty simple.
I found coloring pages on-line that I printed off, colored and framed for part of the decor.
Â
I also created a “28 Brian Street” sign using Adobe Illustrator.
Â
For food we went with items that started with the Letter B…Â
Burgers and Brats for mains and then Beers for drinks!
Then, for sweets, I made a Cookie Bar that would make the Cookie Monster a very happy monster.
The sign above the table read, “B is for Brian, but C is for COOOOKIEEE!!”

| The Count counting the chocolate chip cookies! |
I made 7 different types of cookies, made Bailey’s Milkshake Shots and Cookie Monster Cupcakes for the cookie bar. It was the highlight of the evening for sure!

| Bailey’s Milkshake Shots topped with yummy cookies. |

| Isn’t Cookie Monster just too adorable! |
(I just googled “Cookie Monster Cupcakes” and found several different tutorials for making these guys. I then mixed and matched until I found something that used what I had on hand.)
Thanks for checking out today’s {REAL PARTY} feature! It was quick and dirty because I didn’t have a lot of photos or tutorials… but, just goes to show you that you can make any party evenÂ
more special with a few details!
Cute, I love the invitations!
I was all about this party till you mentioned Bailey’s, then I fell in LOVE! Can you post about the recipe on that one?! 😀
