The Very Hungry Caterpillar

**WARNING**
This is a very long post and I'm sorry but it's my baby's first birthday!

On Saturday, March 24, 2012, we had Sarah Beth's first birthday party at our house. The theme was "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" and I was very happy at how it turned out.

Brooke took picture of SB for her invitation and they turned out AWESOME!

And, here is the invitation... 

Pretty cute!

Now for the party!

The decorations...

Front Door, made by Mima

Cake Table & Banner 

Mima did a great job on the banner! 

Hamburgers & Hot Dogs 

The Cupcake Cake! 

Morgan was so sweet to make some apple cupcakes with gummy worms coming out them them.

(She was upset because they melted on the 3 hour drive up here but they were great!)

Smash Cake 

Fruit, Caterpillar Food and Baby Snacks.

On Monday, he ate one apple... 

On Tuesday, he ate two pears... 

On Wednesday, he ate three plums... 

On Thursday, he ate four strawberries... 

On Friday, he ate five oranges... 

Caterpillar made out of bouncy balls. 

I made her party hat! 

The backyard is ready! Love balloons at parties, makes it feel like a kids party. 

The Party Favors. Every child got their own book. Inside, I put a label that said, "Thank you for coming to my first birthday party. Love, Sarah Beth Cossey" I also kept one for SB that everyone signed to keep.

That morning, SB opened her gift from Aunt Shawn, Uncle Todd, Tyler, & Maci.

LOVE Hannah's face in this picture...

LOVE SB's face in this picture.

"Don't even think about opening my present!" 

She decided the bow was more fun than opening it. 

And, she loves it! 

After nap, we got the girls up and ready to PARTY!

Then, all our family and friends came to celebrate with us.
