Duck Hunting Party

Ty's birthday party this weekend was a huge success!! It was so fun to decorate for this party! Brett didn't even mind pitching in a little! It was held at The Hunting Lodge, which was the absolute perfect place to have  a duck hunting theme party!

On the porch, we had to have waders hanging like it was after a big hunt. And, of course, a duck pond with floating decoys!

The food table featured a burlap backdrop with custom sign and bunting. 

 We had finger foods since the party was in the afternoon. Shotgun shells in shell belts (pigs in a blanket), duck jambalaya (thanks Grammy!), cheese and quackers, grilled duck (thanks Brett!), duck bills (Pringles), duck feed (Chex Mix), and duck calls (Bugles).








For drinks we had Swamp Water, Sunrise Orange Soda, and Sweet Tea (Had to get a Duck Dynasty reference in somewhere!) 



 Sabra Elmer made the most precious cake!! So we had Cake and Mud (chocolate ice cream)!
 The table was decorated with burlap ribbon, mason jars filled with shotgun shells and actual rice from our farm, a Winchester shotgun shell box, and a wood duck.



 Can you find the lucky duck? The boys really enjoyed this game! They each got to sign their hunting license, then they got to hunt for their limit of two ducks! I had hidden decoys with money taped to the bottom around the yard, so they each got to find two and see how much money was on the bottom! The boys also got to shoot a Nerf type shotgun at a duck target and take a duck calling clinic from Ty (that didn't really work out as planned! Ha! It was a little loud!!)


 The party favors were mason jars filled with Chex Mix and a tag labeling it Duck Feed! They also got a duck target and duck call to take home!


These precious mini chocolate bars wrapped in custom labels!


Ty even got to open his presents right in front of a roaring fire! Ahhhh! It was perfect!

And, of course, what kind of party would it be without a game of football!!
