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!

Pin for later so you can throw your own TACO “TWO’s-day” party

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!

What a cute way to celebrate a second birthday! I love the way you used the tacos as picture stands. I would love it if you would share this at my Happy Now Link Up. We love to see anything like this to spread some joy!
