We did it mamas! I couldn't find a board open for birthday parties (please forgive me if I missed it) but I wanted to start one to celebrate all our hard work over this year! One year ago at this time we were sharing birth announcements, and today we celebrate such a huge milestone! Go us!!
I wanna see birthday parties! Give me details on what made it special! Please share!
Our little introvert was not comfortable with all the attention on him hahaha our family flew in from California (to Hawaii) to celebrate with us so it was extra special! And for the smash cake, one of my girlfriends found a vegan/sugar free recipe online (pretty sure it's just bananas and applesauce) so our boy was asleep before his party was even over! Hah!

Re: PARTY TIME
I did a ton of planning and crafts for our party. Some of my favorite things were the balloon wreath that I made for the door and all the stuff I made with pictures. I made cupcake toppers with his face and party hats that I just loved. And people took them home and put them up. I keep getting pictures from people of my little Judah faces all over their homes. I also did a guest book so people could leave him a note about his future and their hopes and dreams for him, and it's in that Dr Suess bday book so we will have that forever
looking forward to to seeing what others did and stealing their ideas for the next party!
I I did order some bumblebee theme type decorations off amazon last minute. My MIL and SILs set it up since we had the party at their house.
My SIL also made a palm sized raw carrot cake for my daughter to eat (and a bigger healthy cake for everyone else too). So yeah besides making a lot of the food (my family helped some) I didn't do much.

I am totally in love with the bunting I made, it says 'Adelaide is one'. I couldn't take it down... I might leave it there for the month and then cut off the 'is one' an hang it over her bed...
