First off...you guys...I can't believe my baby is 1!! I swear it was just yesterday we were bringing him home from the Hospital. What an amazing year its been! Ryder is just what we needed in our lives and words cannot describe the love I have for this boy. What a blessing he is!!
We started his Birthday morning off right with a crib full of Balloons and a great big Birthday breakfast. The rest of the day was spent swimming, watching his favorite cartoons, eating his favorite food and just spending time with family. Then it was party time!
For his birthday party I was struggling to decide on a theme. He really loves Mickey Mouse but I think a mustache theme is the cutest thing ever! (Remember Ryder's Mustache Valentines ??) Mustache Birthday Bash it is!!
I bought most of his party supplies at Hobby Lobby. There was matching invitations, napkins, plates, Birthday banner, and high chair banner. And I loved the colors!!
Seriously how cute is this cake made by my step mom?? She made one cake to serve to everyone and a smash cake for Ryder.
We served a meat and cheese tray, fruit and dip, chips and dip, cake and cupcakes. And as I have mentioned before this kid doesn't have much of a sweet tooth. So he just played in his cake and was more interested in his balloons.
His party turned out just how I imagined it. Thank you to all our family and friends that made Ryder's 1st Birthday a memorable one! Ryder loved seeing everyone and had a blast at is party! However he did not like when I put his mustache on. It's hard to be 1.
Cutest.thing.ever.

ReplyDeleteOh I'm glad you found the decorations they are the cutest! I got the shirt from Nordstrom online. It's by peek kids and I believe it's called a utility shirt. You can see more pics here
