A First Birthday


I just finished making the birthday invitations for my first son's first birthday. Wow. It turned out so cute, I think (He did all the work being so cute. Well, that and our amazing photographer helped!)! I looked on Flickr for handmade birthday party invitations, and found good ideas galore. I wasn't really even going to send real invitations (email will be the downfall of our civilization), but changed my mind after seeing all the great work there.

We're just going to have a few people over, presumably set up the kiddie pool, and have some eats. Here's what is on the menu so far:

Grillables (of course)
Coleslaw
Three Bean Salad
Fresh Strawberry Pie with Whipped Cream

Any other good first birthday must-do's or must-eats?
