Ashlyn Grace turns ONE!! I had planned to put together a themed “Pinterest” party but decided I was too tired (haha). So instead, I put together a low key “Puppies and Ice Cream” party and invited family.
The decor was kept very simple, with little pops of color, and a few accessories. It was important to keep the party low-key, on a budget, and not go overboard. I think I achieved it all!
Ashlyn loves dogs, so we dressed up her fur brother (Cheddar) in a party hat (he wasn’t thrilled). We invited her fur cousin (Eagan), but his parents said he was too hairy to bring, haha!! He still got a party hat to take home.
I purchased cupcakes at a local bakery, and grilled hamburgers and hot dogs for the main course. Easy & Yummy! Ashlyn devoured a chocolate cupcake and had a little meltdown shortly after; sugar rush I suppose?;)
It ended up being a fun day, and I wish time would just stand still! My baby is growing way too fast!
