Rivers actually Birthday was on Thursday so we did his party Saturday morning and served a small breakfast. The goal was to keep it simple and stress free, and while the party itself was fun and stress free the planning and setting up still had it's fair share of stress. Mostly because I was sick the whole week leading up and was unable to get as much done as I wanted. Since the party was at 10 a.m. we wouldn't have much time in the morning to get it set up so we stayed up late Friday night setting up and I woke up early Saturday morning to clean the house and bake the cake.
We kept the food simple with donuts from my favorite local donut shop and bagels from Einsteins. The kids played while the adults talked, we sang Happy Birthday to Rivers, and we attempted a smash cake but I think all the attention and people were a little much and he refused to touch it. We asked on the invitations that instead of gifts people bring a small donation to donate towards Rivers college fund and we got a good amount of money. All and all it was a success and I'm a little sad it's over because now my baby is official 1.
Happy Birthday my sweet Baby Boy! We love you to the moon and back!
