Our sweet little Wryder turned one last week and we celebrated his birthday with family while we were in Nebraska this weekend. Wrexy’s parents allowed us to raid their home (thank you!) and all of the great-grands made it in, along with Uncle Waco, to celebrate with us!
This was one of the smaller little parties I’ve thrown but, by far, one of my most favorite!
I designed this invitation and then went from there…
I love lots of color and different patterns and textures and I was really pleased with how everything came together.
We took the little bunny from his invitation, blew it up and then cut it out of foam board.
I knew I already had a lot of bunting going on but I knew I wanted a series of 13 pictures that showed him every month from birth to one year. I knew Robin had this little tree in the corner of the dining room, so I printed the pictures and then hung them on the tree…
My friend Stephanie (fantastic name, yes?!) makes delicious and beautiful cakes! How cute are these?! She went above and beyond my little instructions…girl after my own heart!
I also made “carrots” (candy coated pretzels) in “dirt” (crushed Oreos).
For thank-you’s, we got each couple a photo book of Wryder’s first year – they were a hit!
We drank fun soda (Bunny Beer) and ate…
- Hoppin’ Ham Sammies
- Funny Bunny Fries
- Garden Greens
- Fuzzy Fruit Skewers
- Cottontail Carrots and Ranch
The little guy had as much fun as we did!
His little cake was a hit, too! Remarkably, he ate like such a gentleman!
It was a wonderfully exhausting weekend celebrating our sweet baby boy! Now, great-grandma is home with us for a week…more posts full of fun to come!
