Fabulously Theme-less First Birthday

Hello Again! As if my Wilhelmina’s “Fabulously Theme-less Nursery” wasn’t enough, I decided to go for a “Fabulously Theme-less First Birthday” to celebrate our glorious first 12 months with our girl.  We decided to throw a fairly simple party, on a beautiful November day, in the shade of the trees in our side yard. Our home is right next door to a neighborhood park so it was an ideal location for all of W’s friends to join us for some cupcakes and BBQ and a fun day of playing in the park.
 
 
 

Elise’s Rainbow/Noah’s Ark 1st Birthday!

A rainbow and Noah’s Ark themed party for a 1 year-old.  We don’t have a house big enough for 30 guests so it was supossed to be in our backyard patio area.  Of course the rain came down (ironically enough!) and stopped 30 minutes before the party started.  With lots of help from family we quickly got the decorations up!  You’ll be able to tell from some of the pictures that I didn’t have much time…

Tailgate Themed Baby Shower

My husband and I are so excited for our first child – P.J. – to arrive in a few months, that we threw a tailgate themed shower in his honor. My husband was a college football player and now coaches at the high school level in south Florida. We had a ton of fun decorating, using onesies as part of the theme and showcasing football in the invitations and center pieces. We also split the food up into pre-game, game time and post game sizes, with snazzy names for each item.
