We will probably have a little get together with my parents and any other family that may want to come to town (no one lives near us). I doubt we would invite that many friends, maybe a few close ones? I figure we'll have cake, a cake for her (I'll make both), some sandwiches or burgers and dogs and chips? I dunno. That's how we party. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-love-you-guys-but-you-make-me-feel-like-a-slacker#post-232362 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 12:00:26 +0000 MamaMoose 232362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyBoecksMom: Don't worry. This will TOTALLY be me!! I think that sounds like a lovely first birthday party. I can't get on board with spending tons of money on a party that the LO won't even remember when I could be putting it into a college savings account! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-love-you-guys-but-you-make-me-feel-like-a-slacker#post-232360 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 11:59:31 +0000 Maysprout 232360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just had a small get together with family and friends and it was lovely. I did make her cake myself and I was super impressed, but other than that I just ordered stuff off Amazon the week before, went to a party store, and then cooked a bunch the day before and it was a great day. </p> <p>We had a little baby pool for her since it was hot and she played in that a bunch, she started up a dance party when we had music on and other than that she just ran around the backyard while some people played with her some people just ate and hung out and some people played outside games. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-love-you-guys-but-you-make-me-feel-like-a-slacker#post-232359 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 11:59:05 +0000 cyndistar3 232359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well you aren't the only one, we do the same thing :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-love-you-guys-but-you-make-me-feel-like-a-slacker#post-232353 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 11:55:46 +0000 mrbee 232353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You should do what comes naturally!</p> <p>Personally, my idea of a perfect birthday is just a cake and a fun family event. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-love-you-guys-but-you-make-me-feel-like-a-slacker#post-232346 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 11:51:17 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 232346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>... when it comes to planning DDs birthday party. I was just planning on having some family over for some snacks, cake and ice cream (no fancy set up) - short and simple, right? Well, then I see all of these wonderful parties that everyone else is throwing, with their perfectly thought out decorations, awesome food and dessert tables and adorable outfits and it makes me think I'm doing an injustice to my LO. </p> <p>Guess I need to up my game a little bit - HAHA!</p> <p>THANKS!! :-D </p>
