Bode's Yo Gabba Gabba 1st Birthday

Like I said in a previous post, I did 2 great parties in February and have been meaning to document them for a while. The first was an AWESOME 1st Birthday for Bode!

The cake was quite the showstopper and made by the Jax Beach Bakery Cinotti's. Guests got to leave Bode a note to put in his Time Capsule, to be opened on his 21st Birthday. I also picked up a Time (looking back on all the big news stories of 2011 i.e: The Japanese Earthquake) and People special addition (looking back on all the big Social stories of 2011 i.e: The Royal Wedding). Above the table I took a picture from each month of Bode's first year. I didn't get a picture of the food, but it was YUMMMM!!! The Perfect Pear catered the event with mini shot glasses of Tomato Soup and little grilled cheese. Delicious Sliders and fried pickles and chicken nuggets (that were just as good, if not better thaN Chick Fil A). For party favors, each kid size guest got to take a t-shirt and DJ Lance glasses. Most DJ Lance glasses I found were paper (aka not so good for the littles). I decided to buy cheap sunglasses (9.99 for a dozen) and punch the lenses out. Then I designed personalized t-shirt and printed them on the iron on paper. The front the shirts say "my name is ****! And I like to Dance.) My kids still love wearing them today! This Birthday Party turned out so awesome. Great colors and fun for kids and adults!
