We planned Hayes's party for this past Saturday even though his birthday was last Friday. It was nice not having a party the next day to worry about and being able to enjoy his actual birthday! I didn't plan it that way on purpose, but it definitely worked out! I'll probably do that again in the future!
Here are a few pictures from his special day! In order to spare you a barrage of pictures in 1 post, I decided to split it up into 2 posts. Today's pictures will be of the decor and tomorrow I'll post the family shots.
I love a good theme, so I went with the "Wheels on the Bus" since that's his favorite song right now.
I had fun decorating our dining room shelves to go with the theme. And since I'm a teacher, it wasn't too hard to get my hands on most of this stuff!
Close-up of the shelves. I made the "Happy Birthday" apple banner and taped letters on a large serving dish to make a clock.
The food also went along with the theme: carrots, celery sticks, apple slices, oranges, grilled cheese and PB&J, and pretzels. Of course, we ate off lunch trays (courtesy of the fabulous lunch ladies at my school!).

I found the perfect cupcake toppers from Johnna of Mama Matryoshka on etsy.
Cartons of milk, juice boxes, and water to drink.

I can't even believe he's one! We had such a fun day celebrating our little man! Stay tuned for more pictures tomorrow!
