Cowboy Jackson's 1st Birthday Party!

Jackson's first birthday party was such a blast! Since this was the one birthday I knew I would have complete control over, I wanted to really get creative and do something cute! I decided to go with a cowboy theme, which I thought would be sweet for a little boy's birthday, plus would give me enough room to make it really pretty and fun! We had such a blast!

Decor:
-Photo booth
-Bandana penant banner
-Burlap "one" banner
-Red classic Radio Flyer wagon for presents
-Jackson's stats "chalkboard" (dollar store black foam board and metallic sharpies!)

• What People Ate

  Mac & Cheese, Pigs in a Blanket, veggies/hummus, fruit, mini cornbread muffins, build-your-own trail mix bar (popcorn, M&M's, goldfish)

• What People Drank

  Sweet tea, lemonade, bottled water

• Desserts

  Vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with white icing, red sprinkles, and cowboy hat cupcake toppers! Cupcakes are GREAT for small children, and parties in general!

• Party Favors

  Bandanas, straw cowboy hats, mustaches on sticks (stenciled onto card stock, cut out, and hot glued to skewers)

• Activities / Games

  -Photo booth: hay bale station with "wanted" frame and props (paper mustaches on sticks, bandanas, straw cowboy hats, stuffed horses) -Rocking Horse -Swing (I did not plan games this time around as all of the little ones were still a bit young!)
