Taco “Two’s-Day”-Braden’s 2nd Birthday Party

November 8, 2016 By houseofhargrove@gmail.com

Saturday my sweet baby boy turned 2!!  How is that possible?!  We had all the family over and celebrated with a taco “TWO’s-day” theme!  It was so much fun and so easy!  We catered food this year and that was a total #momwin!  Who doesn’t love a Taco Bar?  It was delicious and so much less work!  Here are all the details!

We are lucky to have family live close so they all came over to help us celebrate and I am pretty sure they were all excited about tacos. Here was the invitation I sent out.

We catered Fuzzy Taco….DELICIOUS!!  I think I could definitely get used to catering!  Tastes better, less time, less clean up and we have amazing leftovers!

I got the pom-pom banner at Hobby Lobby and hung some recent photos of Braden below.   I just love a photo banner!  It is still hanging in our kitchen :)…I don’t want to take it down!

Huge chalkboards are the best.  They are cute and can be used over and over again!  I kept it really simple this year with some cardstock 2’s from Hobby Lobby, chippy wood blocks, scrapbook paper for added color, signs I made and taco picture frame holders.

Since we had a taco theme I thought using hard shell tacos, filling them with green paper sizzle to look like lettuce and sticking  photos of Braden in there would be cute, cheap and fun!

A little taco cookie cake!

The birthday boy!!  We bought these little plastic sombreros and mustaches at Hobby Lobby and took fun pictures with them.  Braden was not so sure about the mustache!

The family got in on the fun! I swear it was fun even though we all look so serious in this photo!  For some reason the mustaches gave everyone serious faces!  It was hard to smile!  Geoff’s is a bit wonky! haha.

It was a fun little fiesta and we loved celebrating our sweet little man!

    Omgosh, love following your blog. I’m starting to get a little weirded out though for we have way too much in common lol! First of all out interest in decor and design. Our taste…very similar. Some of the things you purchase even the ones you don’t advertise I have in my home..example candles. The one that really hit home is your latest…”Braden’s bday” I too have a Bradyn and he’s 14! Crazy right! Happy posting I love it!

    I don’t have a 2 year old but, instead I have a 37 year old (husband) that would love a party like this 😉 Thanks for sharing with us at Funtastic Friday!

This little nook is the entry into our primary bedroom, and it is very functional. I designed a full wall of built-ins to store extra bedding and have an easy place to tuck away throw pillows when the bed isn’t made.

When we were building, we really tried to think through how we actually live—creating a place for everything so staying organized is easy.

✨REMODEL UPDATE: PRIMARY BEDROOM✨

🤎comment SHOP for sources
➡️ swipe for before & after

This room got a full facelift. 1st thing…the tile needed to go. I’m not a fan of tile in a bedroom. We carried the wood floor throughout & that alone made a HUGE difference.
Next we updated the doors and added some applied picture molding to the walls. This is an inexpensive way to really elevate a space. A lot of times people don’t know what to do with blank walls so they fill them with art. I wish I had a good before picture of this room before we took everything off the walls. There were so many mix matched art pieces with sayings, etc. to fill the space. Sometimes less is definitely more and trim finishes a space while simplifying it.
Lastly we just updated the decor. We found all the furniture on Facebook Marketplace. 
We also removed a bunch of furniture from this room.
One major theme in this entire home remodel was less is more.

🌴SPRING BREAK🌴
We headed to LA for the 1st part of Spring Break & had so much fun.

•spent a day at Universal Studios
•enjoyed Santa Monica, the pier, the beach, 3rd st promenade 
•explored Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive, Melrose, the Grove, Sunset, Hollywood, Taylor Swifts house…we packed a lot in
•got to see a taping of America’s Got Talent. It was so much fun seeing the acts live, hearing the judges feedback & we even saw 1 person get a golden ticket!! The show will air in June, but will be a fun season to watch.

It was a great trip & we still have several more days to enjoy the break at home!

✨REMODEL UPDATE: POWDER BATH✨

This bath got a huge cosmetic update & reconfiguration.
It had a very awkward angle in the corner that kind of threw off the space. We disguised it with custom cabinetry and a faux panel. This added useful storage, design & now you’d never know there was a strange angle. 

🤎comment SHOP for sources

Some fun wallpaper, paint, counter details, hardware & sconces finished off this great space.

Now functional & beautiful.
