Good morning, friends! I’m SO EXCITED to share today’s post with you! A few weeks ago, we celebrated Ava’s 6th birthday… Puppy Pawty style! We invited some of Ava’s sweet friends from school over to adopt a stuffed puppy and eat lunch, cake, and ice cream!

We set up lil’ stations in our living room and the kids took turns choosing their puppy, giving their puppy a name, and filling out an adoption form. They also made a carrying case and a collar for their puppies. Finally, they gave their little dogs a check-up at the Vet Station. The kids’ favorite stations were the collar making and vet station! For the vet station, I purchased a few items off of Amazon (linked below) and also pulled out all of our Doc McStuffins/vet supplies we had. I used Mike & Ikes for “medicine” for the dogs.

For food, we had Scooby Snacks dog bones, Paw-tato chips, Pb&J sandwiches cut outs (from bone and dog house cookie cutters), and hot dogs.

This party was a blast! If you throw one of your own, please tag me @amandamhamman – I would LOVE to see!
