Mod Monkey Birthday Party

Posted on Sunday, May 17th, 2009

For the decorations, I pulled the blue and yellow polka dots from the invitation.   I also decided to make palm trees….ugh!  That was a project!

To me, having a smash cake is the best part of 1st birthday party! Lucas has fun smashing the cake.  He didn’t eat much of it.  The cake was done by Ann. She has done several cakes for the family and always does an awesome job.

Happy Birthday Lucas!

Posted on Saturday, May 16th, 2009

As I type this(between tears), it’s almost exactly 1 year to the second that my sweet baby Lucas was born.  Hard to believe a year has already passed.  As much as I love little Lucas, he has been quite the challenge.  He is definitely happier now that he can be more independent.  To fit his personality, we decided to go with the mod monkey theme for the party. Here is the invitation…

Here’s me and my baby (he will always be a baby in my eyes) at his party.

More pictures from the party will be up soon.

Happy Birthday Derek!

Posted on Sunday, April 26th, 2009

Derek had a great day celebrating his birthday. We have wonderful friends and family that came to the house for an airplane themed party. The party was a huge success. I think Derek had a great time! Poor Lucas, he slept through all but about 30 minutes of the party. That’s ok, his turn in 3 weeks!

For Christmas last year, Dan got me some awesome video editing software. We just installed it today. So, I threw this slideshow together quickly.

We love you Derek!

Airplane Theme Birthday Party Invitations

Posted on Friday, March 20th, 2009

Since these invitations haven’t been mailed yet, I shouldn’t be posting this. But, I can’t resist!! Thanks to the suggestion of my mom, I decided to go with an airplane theme for my son’s second birthday. I am so excited! Here is the invitation I designed. It has the look of an actual boarding pass, just a little cuter! I had trouble finding envelopes, so I decided to make my own! As much as I hated ruining the atlas, I think they turned out great! His birthday isn’t until the end up April, but after that I will have tons of pictures. So check back! If you are interested in purchasing these, click here.
