Caleb's 1st Birthday Party

About 3 weeks ago, my baby boy, had his FIRST birthday! I can't believe how quick the time went by... Makes me sad that he's already over a year old. Wow! So for his birthday, we decided to do a pirate theme. It was so cute and fun, and fit us perfect.

We did it down at the park in our neighborhood. The weather was perfect, our awesome friends and family came, Caleb ran around and played the whole time... And then he piled a whole cupcake in his mouth! It probably couldn't have been a more perfect party.  We all had a blast and are so thankful to everybody who came and made it so fun.

So, of course, my favorite part to a party is the food! I did a 2 tier pirate cake, oreo cupcakes with cream cheese oreo frosting, chocolate and vanilla covered pretzels, and (my favorite) chocolate and vanilla covered rice krispie treats! The cake was incredibly fun to do. I definitely love being able to make new cake creations that I've never done before. The cupcakes were also a new recipe I had never made before, and they turned out so moist and delicious! Definitely a recipe that will be made again. As for the pretzels and rice krispies... I think they spoke for themselves when there were none left at the end of the party! lol Those are so fun because they can be color themed for any party or event.

Here's a couple pictures from the party.
