So Em is already 13 1/2 months old and I am just getting around to putting this post up! In my defense, I also just cleaned out our office after the whole move! So I was slacking on more than one thing... way to nail it mama! Ha.
Anyway! We have a bonus room attached to the kitchen and we used that for most of party central. Cake table and goodies, lots of balloons, and pictures.
I didn't have a major theme as much as I wanted it to be very colorful and fun! Her cake however was a hot air balloon theme. I was so busy with everything else for the party that the cake was kind of a last minute project! (Terrible to say as a pastry chef!)
As favors for all of our friends and family that came and celebrated with us, ( I don't know why we didn't get any group shots?!) I made cookies for favors. Bags and bags of chocolate chip and snickerdoodle cookies. We also ate cheap pizza, but that was just because we never got around to lunch before the party!
To keep our younger guests happy, I loaded them up on sugar, let them pop all of the balloons on the floor, and gave them side walk chalk to go wild with!! It was so much fun!
We let Em blow out her candle... or try to!!
After we blew out the candles, we let her go hog wild on a piece! She picked that thing up and went for it!
Thanks to all of our friends and family that were able to make it! And lots of love to all of the people that sent gifts from out of town! They spoiled our little girl so much! She really is a wonderful and lucky little girl! It's so hard to believe that the love of our life is already one! I am already starting to think of her second birthday and of course Hy is already rolling his eyes at me being a crazy person! So life is settling into normal! Lots of love from our family!!
