Henry’s First Birthday (Only 2 months late!)

My very dear friend, Natalie Stephens, had a brilliant idea of throwing a combined birthday party for our 2 babies who would be turning 1 this year.  She knew I wouldn’t have time to throw one for Henry myself right now (and boy was she right!), so she ended up doing pretty much all the work.  So, thank you, Natalie!  You’re the best!  It turned out to be exactly everything I would have loved to do myself and more, and I was so impressed with how it all turned out!

The set-up:

 

A cute birthday boy

 

The food:

 

We each made a cake for our kids – Natalie made the adorable ladybug for her daughter, Elena, and I made the hungry caterpillar for Henry.  Unfortunately mine fell apart in the car, so it was infinitely cuter about 30 minutes before this picture was taken!

  In this one, look at the apple in the middle with worms coming out!  She did such a great job!

 

These were my favorites!  The ice cubes even had worms coming out of them.  And they were raspberry flavored!

Guests:

Cute boy :)  I love him!  He found a pinecone and a flower to smell.

 

Henry’s best car-ride home EVER!
