Agh! I cannot believe my baby already had his first birthday party. Wahh A good friend once told me that when you have a baby, the days are long (sometimes unbearably long) and the months – and years- are short. Well, that is more true than I could have imagined. It seems like only yesterday we were taking Campbell home from the hospital.. and I was having my first anxiety attack about being a mother. And just one year later, I had another attack over his first party. I’m just kidding…it really wasn’t bad, but I did spend entirely too long on DIY party decorations.
I promise there were other kids there, I just didn’t want to post my friends’ children because they’ll sue me. Anyway, as I posted before, we decided to go with a camp themed party as “Campy” is one of his nicknames. The teepee, fishing poles and camp themed foods (S’Mores anyone?) were a hit! I’m sure Campbell will definitely remember all the hard work that was put into his first birthday party ;) So he may not remember it, but he did have fun with his family and friends and that’s all that matters!
Balloon and tassel garland: Oh Shiny Paper
Paper garlands and basically everything else: moi & the $ bins at Target
Tent (under $100): Amazon
This was the cutest, most creative first birthday party! His Davey Crockett hat was my favorite. And the Teepee. Helllllp me!
He is a cutie! Congrats on making through the first year :) The party is adorable!
Thanks!!! haha
You did the BEST JOB EVER on the party! And Campy couldn’t have been cuter. Laughing about “I swear there were other kids there!”
