May is a good month in our home as it’s our daughters birthday. May is also a good month for folk in East Dublin, Georgia, as they have their Annual Redneck games! Festive delights include armpit serenading, pig feet bobbing, the mud pit belly flop, toilet seat tossin’ and watermelon pip spittin’.
Turning to the games for inspiration (minus the fartin’, bobbin’, tossin’ and spittin’), this year my daughters birthday was a watermelon coloured high tea.
HOW TO MAKE A WATERMELON TENT WITH STREAMERS & ROSES
Using a Bryne net tent from Ikea, threaded streamers over the outside string. Added foam roses and a green crepe top.
I hanged the watermelon tent over the kids food serving table before loading it up with watermelon coloured party foods.
WATERMELON COLOURED PARTY FOODS
1) Green Jelly, White chocolate mousse and strawberry syrup cups.
2) Decorated marshmellows with edible marker pens and weaved onto bamboo skewers with red licorice and watermelon sour sweets.
3) Pink Vanilla cupcakes with green icing and pink sprinkles.
WATERMELON BUNTING
Made with foam packaging & acrylic paints.
For a small dose of Hill Billy fun… The Three legged race!
Old school and loads of fun!
Happy 6th Birthday to my Beautiful girl!
