Western Horse Rodeo Birthday Party

Bronx had a great Western themed birthday party last Saturday!  On his birthday, we celebrated with a small family party.  His new baby brother had just came home from the hospital 3 days earlier, so we kept it small.  His mom was anxious to have his big birthday party as soon as she felt up to it.  Last Saturday was the day!  She had such cute themed ideas!
 We gathered several rocking horses and stick horses to make a "Rodeo" area for the kids to ride.  They had a great time playing in this area!  I watched many riders get bucked off of their horses!  The drink table was labeled "The Watering Hole".  The snack table was labeled "The Eatin' Place".  On that table, Rice Krispie treats were labeled as "Hay Stacks', Party Mix was labeled "Happy Trail Mix", Pretzels were labeled as "Salty Straw", and Texas Caviar Salsa was labeled as "Cowboy Caviar".

The birthday boy LOVES cupcakes!  He had an "Elmo" party for his 2nd birthday with really cute Elmo cupcakes.  He has talked about those Elmo cupcakes all year!  His mom knew that he would much rather have cupcakes instead of a regular cake. Granny (my mom) used her Cricut to cut out 50 Paper Horses and then glued them to toothpicks for the cupcakes.  We made Chocolate Cupcakes with chocolate icing, White Cupcakes with cream cheese icing, and White Cupcakes with chocolate icing.  The cake table was labeled "Cupcake Bonanza".  The herd of Horses looked so cute on that table!  I used my Cricut to cut out the letters for the signs from brown paper sacks.  Then I added twine to complete the "Western" look.
Bronx ran off when we started singing "Happy Birthday" to him!  I am not sure if we sounded that bad or if he was embarrassed, but it was too cute!  He did come back and blow his 3 candles out!  It was a lot of fun and a GREAT birthday party!
