Hosting a birthday party at a baseball field [1] can be an incredibly memorable celebration depending on how you do it.

For Jenny Keller of Jenny Cookies [2], she absolutely knocked it out of the park with the celebration she organized for her 8-year-old son, Hudson. Inspired by the timeless, all-American feel of this beloved pastime, Jenny invited friends and loved ones to a local ball field for a day filled with hitting balls (and a piñata!), enjoying lunch from a DIY [3] concession stand, and sipping on treats from an ice cream soda [4] bar.

Along with the exciting activities, Jenny incorporated special elements to ensure a crowd-pleasing day. From having the invitations [5] printed on actual baseballs to custom hats complete with a Hudson logo, this family-friendly day was all about celebrating Hudson and his love for baseball. A vintage trophy was removed from its base and instantly transformed into the perfect cake topper [6], while fresh farm flowers placed in vintage popcorn tins added to the overall decor. This party proves it's possible to bring an elevated feel to a dusty baseball field!
