Zane turned two just 9 days before Christmas, it's always a busy time when you throw a birthday party in before Christmas. Since my side of the family was here in AZ this year for Christmas we decide to throw him a small party just family. Our theme was football/sports. Zane is developing quite a love for football and it makes Daddy proud! Also his room is football themed so it just made sense.

We kept things pretty simple for his party, I whipped up this cute invitation and sent it as an evite to our family.

Simple beverage station for the party of sweet tea & water! I bought a sports themed paper pack from WeR Memory Keepers and used it to punch out cupcake toppers, place mats and signs around the party. You can see in the details below.

He loved the signing of "Happy Birthday" and of coarse was fascinated by the candles!

We kept the food simple and just ordered pizza, and had other "game day" snacks like chips & salsa, veggies, football themed brownies and cupcakes.

I found these football themed banners at JoAnn's last football season scooped them up for 75% off last year. I used them to decorate around the house.

Zane had a lot of fun opening up gifts this year, it's always a little more interesting when they know what's going on. It's fun to see their reactions.

Our little family with the birthday boy! I can hardly believe he's already two! Time just goes way to fast. He's turned into a little boy with lots of personality. We love you Zaney!
