Last weekend, we celebrated my best girl's 3rd birthday!

Invitation idea for fireman/firetruck birthday party...cute invites!

From the time we started talking about her 3rd birthday party, there was no doubt what the theme was going to be. Each time we ask her what kind of party she wanted, she answered the same way; Fire Truck. Never once did it chance. So, a Fire truck themed birthday party she got!

In years past, I've spent so much time planning the party...I'm talking months of planning and coordinating. This year? I planned it in an afternoon and I spent maybe a week getting everything together. I think I've finally caught on to the fact that it's about the kids and doesn't have to be some big production. I still wanted it to be cute and colorful for her though! More than anything this year, I wanted the party to be something she loved and would remember.

It was kind of an early morning party, so I stuck with foods that a) were easy to prepare and b) were somewhat breakfast-friendly.

I kept the tables simple too...just a little bit of tissue paper in dollar tree cups to look like fire, with balloons in the middle of the tables. Each seat had a fireman's hat for the little firefighters.

    Is your Fire Truck Invitation a printable also or not?
    Thank you!

    1. That had to be customized, so I don't currently have it as a printable. Sorry for the inconvenience!
