Riley's Barnyard Birthday Bash

 Welcome to Riley's Barnyard Bash!  The easiest way to plan a child's birthday party is to ask them what they want.  When asked what kind of birthday she wanted Riley said COWS.  The next step is Google Cow Parties and check out the images.  I came across the cutest party featured on www.ontobaby.com.  A Barnyard Birthday Bash had so many cute ideas it became my inspiration for Riley's party.  I hope that you too will be inspired.

Found the cow patterned balloons at OrientalTrading.com.
A great place to find all of your party supplies.
                                                                                         
Cowgirl and cowboy hats...


The watering hole...

Barn birthday cake and farm animal cupcakes were a big hit!!!



I wasn't sure how to get the chalkboard effect, but  found an easy and inexpensive way.  Use chalkboard
spray paint on foam board and then you can either use chalk or paint markers.  I used both to
get the effect I wanted.



Birthday Girl, Riley!


Loved the idea of stringing Happy Birthday Riley with clothespins...
another inspiration.
