So this big event happened back in June, so i’m a little late in getting it on the blog – but didn’t want to miss sharing our son’s first birthday invite, design, and party with all of you. We had been using a hashtag for Colton since he was born (@nikkinuck and #littlecoltnuckols) so we thought it was only right to incorporate that into the RSVP for the invitation and into the party itself. More on the Invitation suite on Etsy, here. We put signs and fun theme related project everywhere, from this sign at the entry (so that guests could either pick up a cowboy hat to wear or a headdress, to the wanted signs that you could hold in front of your face, and more, everything fit the theme. It was Colton’s very first experience with sweets of any kind – and I think he would have eaten the whole thing if we wouldn’t have taken it away eventually. The “quick draw” basket was full of squirt guns for everyone to play with, and the “Year in Review” poster that we did was a big hit. We included all of the major milestones from Colton’s first year here, and it was fun for everyone to go back and look at. (Get a Year in Review on Etsy, here). We couldn’t ask for better sports, these two (mostly the one on the right), basically put up with me dressing them up whenever I feel like it – so they let me snap a pic before the party!All in all it was a great party, with memories that will last a lifetime!
