Gianna's Big Party
For Gianna's first birthday party we rented a room at the Livermore Community Center (I highly recommend doing this, it was so nice!). We invited her friends and family and we actually had a big crowd show up. It was so nice to see all these people that love Gianna gathered together to celebrate. It felt very reminiscent of her baptism, but with more friends! In the last year Gianna has made lots of friends in playgroup and it was so fun to watch them play together at the party.
end it felt very worth-it to have tied all of those little bows and to have ordered the special animal print balloons and to get the zebra fabric for the tables...whew! We had a Sassy Safari for her party so everything was hot pink, light pink and animal print...It was very cute. Thank you to Justin for tolerating my need to make everything fit the theme so much. It actually all came together very well. I also want to say thank you to My mom and Sarah who helped a ton with the food and decorating, you guys are awesome!
Okay, so here are some of my favorite pictures, Sarah took a ton so it's hard to choose, but I definitely wanted to show Gianna's Lion cake (yep, I made that!); the cute table decorations with animal cracker favors; the kids play area; and the food! I forgot to take a picture of the baby buffet, but we had a little area with kids' food (puffs, cheerios, zwieback, etc.), it was pretty darn cute.
Here are some pictured of Gianna and party guests too:
