A few months ago, I nailed down the theme of my Joy's first birthday: A little bird told me...It's your birthday. Each of my girls' first birthdays have been themed around the time of year they were born: summer, winter, and spring. I had so much fun gathering items and preparing for her special day.
Y'all know I love a good party and Joy's first birthday was no exception! We celebrated our baby girl's big day on Saturday with a good ole' family gathering.
You think Joy is a little vain giving out pics of herself as party favors!? *truth: She has a pretty proud and doting momma!
If you live in the Tyler area and are looking for a place to get cakes, contact me!!! We have used the same place for every special occasion and she always exceeds our expectations!
How adorable is this cake?
I used a lot of the decor from Joy's room for the party.
budget: $150.00
actual party cost: $115.00
cake: $60.00
snacks: $15.00
decor: $15.00
plates/napkins: $10.00
birthday outfit: gift from Gaga and Tat
favors: $15.00
