For Jonah's first birthday, we decided to host a baseball-themed party with just our extended family in our new home. We had the party on the Saturday before his actual birthday, which was on a Thursday.
For invitations, I created these adorable baseball cards using a free app on my phone.
However, I am terrible at actually getting things in the mail, so I ended up just handing the cards out at the party for guests to take home. (And invited everyone by word of mouth or text.)
I set up a "Snack Bar" in the breakfast nook with nachos, hot dogs, peanuts, cracker jacks, and popcorn.

I set up the desserts on the island in the kitchen (and ended up moving the peanuts and cracker jacks over there, too).

I created a little cake smashing station of sorts in the dining room (which turned out to be a bit useless, but more on that later...)
Most of my ideas and decorations came from Pinterest and Etsy. It was a wonderful party and a great day, which I will go into more detail about in my next post!
