Petting zoo was provided by Nettie's Party Pals. They truly were amazing! Their website has a lot more info/pics. They brought around 15 or so adorable animals and a mini horse (more options on site). Haystacks you can rent for under $5 each at Yorba Linda Feed Store (Kruse in La Habra also has them). I bought galvanized buckets to put peanuts in and to hold utensils, as well as mini chalkboard signs to label some of the food, at the dollar bin at Target. Gingham fabric at Joannes to cover the haystacks to be a little more comfy to sit on. Mason jars, from anywhere! Filled these with flowers and some with red vines for the dessert table. Bandannas and cowboy hats for all the kids were from Oriental Trading, along with the gingham plates and napkins and cow print balloons. Super cute rustic arrow chalkboard sign was from save on crafts site. Great to be able to re-use this for future parties and holidays. To go with the theme, we served fried chicken, biscuits, wedges, cole slaw, and more! Yumm! Cow print cake was from Beverly's Best, of course! We've used them for a few years now and they have always made us beautiful looking (& amazing tasting) cakes.
Dylan really had such a blast and the look on his face when he woke up from his nap and saw all of the animals and mini horse in his backyard was priceless! This was a perfect bday gift for my little animal lover.
