Summary:
I have always adored all things in the South. From southern magnolias to sitting on the porch in white rocking chairs sipping iced tea, I cannot imagine living anywhere else. My husband is a southern gentleman with a thick southern accent that melts me every time! Thank goodness our boys take after him! I wanted Hudson’s 2nd birthday to represent our lifestyle & his roots. He is my little southern gentleman from his love for sweet tea, barbecue, watermelon, country music, and all things in the dirt! He even has his Daddy’s irresistible southern drawl and charm. “Ain’t Nothin’ in the World like a Southern Boy” became the perfect idea for his birthday celebration!

Party details: We threw a good ole’ fashion back yard barbecue with playing in the sprinkler, swinging with friends, and playing in their play house. We served barbecue, watermelon, strawberries, southern style potato salad, & slaw. Desserts included vanilla cake & cupcakes, Moon Pies, banana pudding, apple pie, and Grandma’s homemade sugar cookies. The biggest hit of the party was the “Sweeter in the South “style drink cart serving sweet tea, lemonade, and Cheerwine (a cherry soda sold only in the Carolina’s).
Southern boys love to go fishing so for the party favor, we had the children decorate fishing tackle boxes and fill them with bobbers & bait.
