Mickey Mouse Pool Party

I asked Witt what kind of birthday party he wanted, and he said a Mickey Mouse Party.  Been there.  Done that.  Last year.  At 2.  So I tried to think of somehow to do what he requested without doing the same party.

So, we invited our friends to go swimming at the FunPlex with us and we gave it a Mickey spin.

I saw a cute invitation on Pinterest and made my own.  Here's what the invitation said:

Splish! Splash! It’s a Birthday Bash!
Oh, the weather outside is frightful,
But the Funplex Pool is so delightful!
Join us for
Witt’s 3rd Birthday Party

We went to the pool.  Then we came back to our house for lunch.  I wanted a summery/pool party theme.  So the kids had hot dogs and summer fruit.  The grown-ups had Artichoke Soup and Cobb Salad.

And here was the cake:

When the kids came to the house, we had Mickey Mouse coloring pages printed from the Internet for them to color.  We "picnicked" on the floor like we were at the beach. And the party favors were pool toys, sidewalk chalk, and sunglasses.

And of course, Witt dressed as Mickey Mouse.
