Last week was McKay's 31st birthday. I kind of waited to the last minute to plan something for his birthday, like the day before. So I didn't have much fun to prepare anything extravagant. I love to throw get togethers with our friends, but I'm not the type of party planner who has exquisite looking centerpieces, arrangements, and food hutches like you see on Pinterest. Nope, that's not me. I try to strive for simplicity because seriously, all that people care about at a party is that there's good company and good food. Nobody is going to care about the printables, matching colors, and goodie bag. Last month we traveled to Southern Utah and fell in love with Swig and I thought it would be so fun to throw McKay a Swig themed party full of cold sugar cookies and dirty Coke's! I texted a bunch of our neighborhood friends letting them know of the birthday party and we hung out in our backyard, ate, drank, the kiddies ran around while the men played basketball and the girls chit chatted. It was the perfect, non stress, relaxing, and carefree birthday party. This is a great last minute birthday party idea because it's so easy.
