Nolan's Birthday!

This last weekend we celebrated Nolan's 1st birthday with family and friends. Being an event planner by profession i of course had to have a theme and it couldn't be something simple. The theme was Reggae Monkey. Reggae since Nolan has loved reggae since he was brand new, it would instantly calm him even during the biggest fits. And monkey because if you have seen his crazy monkey feet you would understand. I decorated the house as tropical as i could on a budget.
Welcome to Party Central:
Our friend Jodi made Nolan a fabulous eggless, die free mango birthday cake with the most delicious dark chocolate cupcakes for all the guests. It turned out so cute, it was definitely a grand centerpiece. A close up of Nolan's cake on the top.
and the whole thing together. All the decorations are edible and delicious by the way.
Nolan finally got a taste of his first birthday cake. This beautiful cake went from this...
to this...
to this in just a few short minutes.
He had such a great time and I think he'll really enjoy this birthday thing. Now to start planning next year's party! I'm thinking trains.
Thank you to all of you that came to celebrate with us and for those of you that have been there for us this last year. We couldn't have gotten through this without your support and encouragement.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NOLAN!
