‪#‎DisneySide‬ @ Home Celebration




Once upon a time in a place called "Las Vegas", the Mauro family gathered their close friends and
family together at nearby Hills Park to show our #DisneySide. The party was carefully planned weeks
in advance as the very first thing that needed to be done was creating the invitation:

Once it was determined who would be able to come celebrate with us at our #DisneySide @ Home Celebration, it was time to start preparing for the party. We narrowed down the menu to assorted sandwiches, yummy snacks, and cookies and decided on some fun games which this particular one, "101 Dalmatians Guess How Many Candies in the Jar" would sure to be a big hit with the guests:

After counting down the weeks, the big day finally arrived! The Mauro family got up super early on a Saturday morning and gathered all the party items into the car. The final task that needed to be done before heading to Hills Park to set up was picking up the yummy food that we would be serving at the party.

We finally got to the park around 9:30 AM  so we would have plenty of time to set up the party before the first set of guests arrived. My son was such a great helper and he proudly is standing near one of the tables after we had set everything up for the party:
Our first set of guests that arrived at the party were grandma and her partner. The fun part about Disney is that you can be any age and still show your #DisneySide! I took this cute family photo of the three of them together:

Here is some of the highlights of our #DisneySide @ Home Celebration:
Guests dined on assorted peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, assorted ham and turkey tea sandwiches, chips, pretzels, juice, soda, and bottled water:

Everyone had such a blast playing games and here are some pics of two of the top games that were big hits with the guests:
A guest who correctly guessed the number of Hershey Kisses-83 total inside the "101 Dalmatians Guessing Game" proudly displays his prize which he got to take home the jar with all the yummy chocolates inside: "Way to go"!
I decided to come up with a variation on the popular cake walk game as instead we played the "Disney Walk" which the guests would go around in a circle and step on a popular Disney character. Once the music stopped, whoever stopped on the name of the Disney character that was drawn randomly was the winner! Here are guests having a blast showing their #DisneySide by playing the "Disney Walk" game":
Last but certainly not least, all guests did not leave the party empty handed. Each got to take home a goody bag filled with some special momentos as a reminder of this fun-filled day where they got to spend a couple of hours with friends showing their #DisneySide:
Many thanks to a local sponsor, "Popcorn Girl" who donated a goody box filled with her delicious gourmet popcorn as one of the door prizes at the party. You can order her delicious popcorn anytime as she delivers nationwide. To view her website, please visit:
