Royal Knight 5th Birthday Party

I can't believe it myself but my little guy turned 5 in November!! I am excited to blog about his Royal Knight Birthday Party because it was his first 'friends' birthday party at our house and I thought it was great success!!

I found a similar design on Etsy so I hand made the template for the top of the 'castle pennant' and also hand drew the shield. This was my first banner using the cricut but those dragons I hand cut out, which was a pain so I only did two! And I love it!

These party hats are made by one of my favorite party sites called Meri Meri If you haven't checked it out, you might just want to plan a party around one of their ideas. It's that cute!

The royal cups were bought inexpensive at Oriental Trading

Cupcakes of course were from....you guessed it! Sweet Tree's Cottage Bakery

The Castle cupcake display is also from Oriental Trading

Foam swords (perfect in case boys actually do hit each other with them, cause they are very soft) from Aliexpress

Invites made by Nealon Design

She made two invites for me cause she is that great! One for his family birthday party and one for the friends. They were both so adorable that I couldn't decide and she was gracious enough to let me have both designs!!

Cookies also from Sweet Tree's Cottage Bakery

Candy from Party City to match the theme colors

Shields were cut out of foam board for the kids to decorate themselves. I bought stickers, fuzzy balls, glue sticks, and markers for the activity.

That's my birthday boy telling some funny story I am sure.

The boys were so excited for Austin to open their gifts that I could barely see what he even got.

hmmm wonder what that gift was......

Time for some group shots!

En garde!
