Ryan’s Winter Onederland First Birthday Party

My son ended up having the flu so we had to cancel all his friends so it ended up being an adult birthday party as of the morning of the party.  But we all celebrated him and he had so much fun and I think the adults did too.  There was a snowflake photo booth with winter props, cookie decorating station and hot chocolate bar with tons of white and silver “treats”, and a champagne bar for the adults

Kennedy’s Shabby Chic Tea Party

I wanted Kennedy’s first birthday to be unique and special, and make most of her party decor. I decided  on throwing her  a Shabby Chic Tea Party!! This mommy likes to make stuff! It kept me very busy making projects such as the banners, bunting, poms, labels, cake toppers, hanging flower balls, label holders etc… I did a lot of goodwill shopping for the tea cups and dolls. I found many things around the house and in her room to use. I also set up her first birthday shoot and captured some amazing photos! I hope you enjoy my sweet peas First Birthday Party!!

Mia’s First Birthday Party

Since Mia is turning 1 she didn’t request anything specific for her first birthday party, but we wanted it to reflect her personality so we kept it bright and colorful. We stuck to a few colors (blue, pink, purple, and some gold) but other than that it was sort of a free for all! I made a lot of the decorations myself and some of the food (CAKE POP FAIL!)
It was brunch time and we wanted the food to be baby friendly, so we served mini-waffles, cut up fruit, mini cream cheese sandwiches, and mini-desserts (plus the birthday cake)
In the end, Mia had a great morning surrounded by her loving family!

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.
