1st Birthday Decisions

A couple of months ago, I wrote about First Birthday Blues and I've finally decided on a theme TWO months later and ONE month before she is ONE year old! Gosh, Where does the time go??? So the theme is........

A LUAU!!!!

 

We are having her party on Memorial Day and I thought it would be a great day and way to get our families together because the Hub's family ALWAYS gets together for holidays and Memorial Day is no different. We took EA swimming a few weeks ago and she loved it!

So I thought a great way to celebrate her FIRST birthday would be a swimming party and then the Luau theme emerged and I've been excited ever since! I've scoured the internet trying to find a cake I like and I finally found one!

I like how they used hula skirts to decorate the food table and I plan on doing the same thing.

I can't wait to get started and make my thoughts come to life! It is such a bittersweet time. I still can't believe my baby is almost one. It seems like I just had her yesterday and yet other times it seems like she has been a part of our lives for ever! We love her SO much!
