I am not usually a fan of theme parties, but I feel like a first birthday party has to have a theme of some sort. Therefore, I wanted something a little understated (no Elmo plates everywhere for me). I also tend to lean more towards edgey than cutesy, and more towards modern than traditional. I also wanted something decidedly BOY and something that seemed to truly represent our little man (at one point, Josh had suggested a rock star party for baby boy, which would totally be cute, but without the slightest musical gene present on either side of the family, it just didn't seem to "fit").
Many months ago, I came across this Mr. Man party on Hostess with Mostess. Colton has always been our "little man," with people commenting (pretty much since the day he was born) at how much he truly looks like a mini man. So...that's the answer...Colton will have a Little Man party, inspired not only by the party above, but by countless other images I have collected (what did people do before internet, by the way?). Like I have said, much more is on the way, but here are some of my inspiration images so far:
