Ethan's First Birthday!

Ethan turned one on October 12, 2008!

His first birthday party was a halloween themed party, and it was held in our new home over in Cape Coral! All of Ethan's friends came to the party dressed in there halloween costumes! We had pumpkins, cheerleaders, monkeys, superheros, puppies, lady bugs, etc! There was a great turn out, maybe too many people in our house, but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves!

The decorations were centered around the colors orange, purple, and green. I made pumpkins out of construction paper (thanks to Martha Stewart), and hung them around the house. The party favors were little plastic pumpkins filled with goldfish and bubbles. Which ended up being a huge hit! The kids spent most of the time on the patio blowing bubbles! Instead of a cake I did funfetti cupcakes, which worked out perfectly for all the kids! Easy to eat and make a mess with! We had seven layer dip, fruit, pigs in blankets, meatballs, cheeseball, and veggie tray. Perfect amount of food for all the guests.

Ethan got a lot of wonderful toys from all of his friends and family!

We were so happy it turned out to be such a success! Can't wait for next year's bday party! Enjoy the pictures below!

I can not get over how much they have grown since the first birthday party! Looking at the picture of Sophie and Ethan in their costumes on the couch makes me want to cry since they were such little munchkins!!!
