Alex's First Birthday Party

I wanted to share some pictures from Alex's 1st Birthday Party! It was a wonderful day shared with family & friends. There was a huge storm on it's way & waited until we had just sung happy birthday to arrive. Here are a few pictures from the big day. Alex had a great day & as you can see she got so tired she crawled into the play tent to go to sleep!

I loved all of the signs for the party! We had a sign for the front door, one for Alex's high chair & a big one hanging in the entrance to the dinning room. They were made by Pink Ink Creations. I was really impressed with them - they are so well made! Pink Ink is offering our readers 15% off with code: THANKS15 Be sure to head over & plan your next party!

We had a "coloring wall" on the fence with hanging buckets of crayons. It was a fun activity & left Alex with a mural made by her guests!

Inside we hung pictures of Alex from each month. I never remembered to use onesie stickers to take pictures each month so I thought this would be a great way to use them. Even if you did you onesie stickers, this is a way to reuse them for a birthday party!

These whale sippy cups & drink canister were SUCH a fun addition to the party. I typically offer the little ones juice boxes at parties but this was so much more fun & the kids got to take a new sippy home! They were made by I Have A Favor & the shop is offering our readers 10% off through Oct 31st with code: CHIRP

Check them out on Facebook too!

The wonderful set of printables (and the awesome invite up top) is from Sweet Peach Paperie. It's their "Preppy Whale" Collection. The collection also includes a birthday banner & water bottle labels. 

In the goody bags, we had fun treats including matchbox cars for boys & adorable whale & cupcake hair clips for the girls!
