Evan's Birthday Party

I can hardly believe a year has already passed since this: 

But it was time for Evan's first birthday party. I think like any first time mom I was a little geeked out over planning it. I looked at who knows how many online ideas but I finally decided not to do a theme, other than "Blue and Green Polkadots" I know that is kind of lame but I figure he doesn't really have interests of his own yet so the Pirates and Dinos can be for future parties. :) We had a really good turn out and I was really happy with the way things went. Except for a few issues with the frosting... which I don't want to go into. Also, my dad sadly had to fly out to Denmark that very afternoon so he missed out, he was really bummed. Plus Bean in Cali so here is a lot of pictures and a video to make anyone who missed it feel included.
This was his invitation: (Well with address and ph# altered for security reasons)

 

His Highchair decorations/cake

My attempt at fancy two-tone frosting.

Well now you can see close up of how much I suck at frosting...

All the spoils! I say he made out pretty good. And lots of clothes for Summer!

I wanted to post the video of Evan's cake smash but I think its putting me over the limit or something because its not working. I'll have to try later, but here at least is the after pic:

Also got his one year pics back so that'll be in the next post too.
