MELTON MEMORIES: Campbell's 1st Birthday Party

I know you have waited long enough so here they are the pictures from Campbell's 1st Birthday. I first have to give a great big THANK YOU to my friend and neighbor, Megan, who took all these great pictures for me. It made the party that much better since I wasn't running around with a camera in my hand, and she took awesome pictures, so thanks again Megan, I really appreciate it.

We'll lets begin with my favorite thing, decor. I made all the decor myself with a little extra help from Ms. Megan again, I'm so lucky to have such great neighbors. The pom poms above were made by Megan and I, they were so cute and cheap, always an added bonus.

I also made this tutu wreath. It turned out so cute. I added pictures and a big C on it. It got big raves and it now hangs on her bedroom door, to cute.

Of course I got the cake at Merritt's. They have never let me down on a cake and they always do such a great job. I took the invitation in and they were able to match the cake to it. I had secret personal issues about cutting it because it was so cut,e I wanted to freeze it and keep it forever, ha ha.

I also made sacks that had pictures of Campbell thru her first year on them, this way people had something to look at while they were eating. I then put tissue paper in them and balloons and used them as centerpieces. This again was really easy and very cheap.

I made this name banner along with the happy birthday one below. I had planned to hang things outside but the wind was not working with me so we made due and hung things inside. In the end it was a great party and I was so happy with how well it all came together. Campbell was in a great mood the whole time I could not have asked for anything better.

We also rented a Jupiter Jump that kept the kids entertained. Here is a view of the patio.

This is the super cute cookie bouquet my best friend Jennifer sent. It had a barn, cow, duck, pig, and horse on it, it was so cute. Only issue with this is Campbell doesn't eat sugar cookies yet, so guess who did?Thanks Jenn!

Its hard to believe its been a year and even crazier to think of where we were this time last year. Its amazing to think how much a child grows in a year, but thank God she grew and I shrank :)
