Our John has been interested in baseball for some time now.  We decided to have a baseball related theme.  Invitations weren't necessary but all the plates, napkins and cups were printed with gloves and balls. I found a pennant banner which was hung outside near the table.  The balloons were a mix of Mylar baseballs and colored balloons that matched. Our menu consisted of sandwiches and cheese balls. The baloney & cheese were made on wheat bread and cut out with a baseball bat cookie cutter.  The peanut butter & jelly were made on white bread and cut round like baseballs.   At each place setting were white cupcakes with red lacing and brown paper bags with roasted peanuts. I found toothpicks with Redsox pennants to use in the sandwiches. We played an organized game of baseball and had lots of fun.  The cake was  topped with a picture of my son playing baseball.  There were 12 boys all very well behaved and happy. I filled goodie bags with baseball pencils, erasers and pads of paper. There were baseball cards, candy and lots of other little things they love.  As always, we rented a moonwalk to take up the other long spaces when you hear the words, "Mom, I'm bored, there's nothing to do".  We call the moonwalk the instant babysitter.  Another successful day!!
