Sunday was nothing but SPECTACULAR!!!
For the last 4 months, which seemed like forever I had been planning and preparing for not only the Autism Walk but also Landon's Birthday Party.
Initially I had thought we'd do something simple like a indoor pool party since he loves the water. But almost immediately after June 24th; the day Landon started walking independently I knew I wanted to throw something BIG!! I wanted this celebration not to only acknowledge his birthday but to also acknowledge My Boy had accomplished something so simple and expected to some, but something so freaking major to us.The theme came easy simply because he adores Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, but of course I had to give it some funk, so I requested all boys to wear bow-ties and girls to wear tutu's.

I had started goggling all DIY Mickey Mouse projects from making the ears to cake ideas, food menu & names and decoration ideas. I felt like since I started planning so early I would be ahead of my game came day before party day. Well, I wouldn't be me if somewhere I hadn't gotten overwhelmed from trying to master this all alone with no help, that I eventually was scrambling. I however was lucky enough that my daughter, her bestie and my niece was able to jump in and help a great deal that night before the big day. Boy I didn't even go to sleep until after 4am' that day. The day of, I tried to get a few hours of sleep but had to cut that short knowing time would fly by. I had to make the sandwiches, needed to make a final store run to Costco to get the Mickey Mouse chicken nuggets and a few other items but nevertheless, between time catching up, having to pick up the cake and still meet the guy to open the center.... I never made it. Once we where in we started to set up, I had my sister meet the guy just in case I was late so she was there to assist me and my cousin meet us and joined in. The entire time I'm saying I gotta get my chicken nuggets thinking what's a Mickey Clubhouse Party gonna be without them? Next thing I know it was just about 3 o'clock I knew it was out of the question now. I still had to get home to get dressed and get Landon dressed, which Dad ended up doing. Coincidentally while I'm walking out to head home to get ready our first guest arrives and not only that, the cartoon artist was in route as well.
I got home and started to get ready, meanwhile Dad,

Moving along..... I got there and was in total awe that the room looked amazing and we had more guests. The cartoon artist was setup and sketching one of the kids--so we were in official Clubhouse mode! Eventually after some time Auntie Streamer the Clown & Company had arrived, they were there to do a puppet show, face painting, balloons, and had Mickey & Minnie especially for Landon. However, he wasn't to excited about seeing them when they came out but he wasn't to scared where he cried either.
I can definitely tell he wasn't to comfortable but he remained calm for the most part and just looked at them perform. They even made him apart of the puppet show.

In all I was absolutely honored that the party turned out to be such a success, it was obvious all the kids were having fun, the adults were mingling & enjoying each other's company, Dad was socializing while backing me with assuring everyone and everything was flowing and the entertainment was on point & defiantly the party booster.
