Coebie's 100th Bruffday Pawty



Saturday we were greeted by paw prints on the front walk and a Happy Bruffday Coebie sign on the door as we arrived at my Sisters-in-law's house.

Maddie has been talking about Coebie's birthday party all week and couldn't wait to sing Happy Birthday to the old man. He turned 14 on October 10th but due to date conflicts (aka Maddie's party) we had to wait until November 13th to shower him with our love.. turns out because we waited the extra few weeks, he was closer to 100 YEARS OLD, in dog years that is.

I'm of course so mad at myself for not capturing ALL the details due partially to blurry photos and my wanting to chit-chat but everyone there had a GREAT time!

I created the food signs, water bottle labels, a banner, and stickers used on the balloons. The ladies did such a great job pulling it all together. It goes to show how easy it is to throw a party by purchasing the basics and then adding personalized details.

Dinner was sooo good and appropriate for the theme. Guests had a choice of a hot dog (Top Dog), Turkey Dog or a hot dog wrapped in bacon along with ALL the fixings you could think of. Pam also made baked brie in a pastry puff with apricot preserves inside. I could have ate that for dinner, yum! I have never attempted this at home, probably for that very reason.

They thought of everything and it was really fun working on this party with them.

The Birthday Boy- Coebie


Coebie's Parents (love the t-shirts they had made!)


Maddie may have thought this was another party for her.. she was so adorable and fun!


The Food




Water Bottles (not a great photo, they also had Coebie's photo on them)



Candies



The Cake



Balloons filled the room. Each was attached with photos of Coebie from throughout the years. The puppy ones were just adorable!




The Thank You Gift (for the humans) was a "Doggy Bag" bone shaped cookie with marshmallow fondant on top.





They made the sweetest slideshow of photos of Coebie from puppy to 100.. a must for every party!
We had a great time and I know everyone else did too! Happy Birthday Coebs! (and many more!)
