We are a Disney loving family so I wasn’t at all surprised when I asked my little guy what kind of party he wanted for his birthday and he said Mickey Mouse! My friend Hillary is the queen of parties and she had actually thrown a Mickey Mouse first birthday party for her son a few years ago and was kind enough to let me use her decorations. I also found free printables here.

I had found a couple of cute Mickey Mouse cakes that I wanted to do and then one day I found a Mickey Mouse shaped pan at the thrift store. I asked my son which cake he wanted and he picked out the Mickey shaped cake, which hadn’t been my first choice but it was his birthday. I baked a chocolate cake and piped starts to make the Mickey Mouse face. It turned out pretty cute.

We enjoyed a BBQ of Costco hotdogs (so yummy) and chips and a pasta salad. The little kids all went crazy for the Mickey Mouse cupcakes which were super easy to make with Oreos.

All in all we had a great time and an awesome party!
