Re: Who had or is having a really big first birthday party for DC?

We're doing a really big party for DS's 1st...

We are using the "I Dig Being 1" theme and "Elmo.

I sent out the invites today... I made them look like Construction mailers. (Postcards)

The party hats are hard hats, the favors are tool boxes. Elmo (the "site inspector") is coming with a clown and doing face paintings, balloon animals and pictures.

My husbands is gonna have the guys from the company bring the Fire Truck to the house... It's gonna be so much fun...

We are. But, it's nothing spectacularly kiddie. We have abt 75 guests, only 6 kid, in which 3 are infants.. so I decided not to have a kiddie/character theme, just little touches of Classic Pooh here and there.. and I decorated with pink/green scheme (our wedding colors!). I only have to do 6 favors, got these mini sand pail/shovels in pink and green and filled them with little stuff.

The main attraction will be the birthday girl and lots of food!We might hook up a tv and let ppl play Nintendo Wii.

I had a big 1st b-day for Julia, we had it in my parents backyard cause its huge and they have a built in pool.

We had pony rides and a petting zoo come, and it was a pool party also, my whole family came (I have a big family), and some of Julia's friends. I had a cup cake tower made up, and all the cupcakes were decorated in a princess theme. We had a great time!
