We're all still recovering from Katherine's first birthday party this weekend.  It was such a great party and I'm so thankful to everyone who came.  Katherine scored so many awesome birthday gifts!  She's such a blessed little girl.

I've been planning her party since right after Christmas.  I had everything planned, down to every last detail.  The color theme was gold, white, and pink.

Warning:  I am about to overload you with photos!

Here's a little bit about the party decor:

{Katherine's party outfit:  DIY tutu, hairbow, "one" onesie}

{My mom made this birthday balloon wreath for the door}

{It's not a party without balloons}

{My mom also made this "ONE" highchair banner}

{Party supplies from Party City}

{DIY tissue garland and ONE garland}

{Beverage station, straws}

{DIY 12 months photo garland}

{Cupcake display}

{Cupcakes from Jilly's}

{The cakestands were made by gluing plates to candlesticks.}

{I added gold animal figurines to the cupcake display}

{My mom made all of the cupcake toppers from tissue paper and glitter paper}

In addition to the cupcakes, fruit, and snacks, we had sandwiches and pasta salad from Scotti's Deli.  Delicious!

Now for the birthday girl.  She wore a "one" onesie, tutu that I made, and gold polka dot hairbow.  She actually wore her bow all day.  I was shocked.


Lots of friends and family made the day super special.  The weather was wonderful.  I couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.

Once the party was over and the guests had left, we went outside to enjoy our last warm day for a while.



It was the perfect end to a perfect day.
