My little guy is officially one! And I'm officially amazed it's been a year already. We had a heck of a bash! Lots of family and friends and yummy food. We did a potluck style dinner, I made sure we had a few basics, like big pots of chili, buns, and the plates and cups and drinks. Then everyone else brought amazing things and we ATE! I wish I had a picture of the spread.
I did a dessert table that had brown paper bags (I have a thing for brown paper bags) with colourful ties on them, cake pops, marshmallow pops, cupcakes, and chocolate moustaches. I had lots of fun!
The ties on the goodie bags actually were very handy for organizing them, I did purple ties for the girly bags, yellow ties for gender neutral, green ties for little boy and blue ties for older boy.
We did the party at David's grandparents church basement, which has a full kitchen, lots of space and benches and tables, perfect! I also set up a bunch of my toys from home to do a children's play area that I enclosed (not totally successfully) with benches to contain. And I also set up a table with sugar cookies I made, and plates and candy and icing for the older kids to decorate.
Jamison actually loved opening all his presents, it was too cute. Can't beat this enthusiasm!
One of my favorite parts of the party, my chocolate moustaches! Jade and I totally have the best movember 'stache!
