How to have a super cool Spy Party on a budget

Make your own invitations out of materials you already have at home.


Write the invitations backwards so the guests have to look in the mirror to read them!


Make your own "who dunnit?" cake from a generic store brand mix and dress it up with candy.


Buy black sunglasses at Target, magnifying glasses and gum at the dollar store, and make your own spy code books for goodie bags.


Pick up black foam hats at Michael's when they are 4 for a dollar! (for some boys, crafts would be the kiss of death, but our boys love crafts! This was a big hit!)


Play the "can you remember everything on the tray?" game.......


......and the "pin the secret documents on the spy" game.




Create a super cool scavenger hunt, and have target practice at one of the clue stops.


Serve $5 hot-n-ready pizzas from Little Caesar's for dinner.





Open fun gifts from generous friends.


Have the guests all stamp their fingerprints before they leave, to use as thank you cards.


Thank the Lord for two of your super cool boys who are growing into young men!
