ONE!- Maisy's Pink Mustache Party

I knew I wanted a "Movember" themed birthday party when I first got pregnant and knew the due date was in November...I didn't know she would be a girl until 20 weeks and by that point, it was too late.  If you know me at all....you know I plan my birthday parties months and months in advance.  So I stuck with the plan and made it a Pink Mustache Bash!


We had her cake smash almost two months before her party to be sure we could use the images for the invites.
I just love how our photographer and friend Amy (Amy Luciani) captured her...just a few...



 


Since I knew the theme at the newborn shoot...our amazing photographer Cynthia (One-12 Photography) put a sticker on our babe and prepped her for her birthday theme...one year early.


A dear friend Char from out West sent Maisy this gorgeous pink dress when she was born so I saved it and sewed on a few mustaches to make it the ultimate party dress


The party was postponed a week since Kiptyn caught an awful tummy bug from daycare (40 out of 60 kids had it by the time I found out and pulled him out....but it was too late).  After disinfecting our house and thanking our lucky stars nobody else caught it we were back on track! Maisy graciously helped me with the DIY projects.


I have to say....a PINK mustache bash is even better than a regular mustache bash!







 "Crustaches" were a MUST!


Mustache food picks....perfect 


Cupcakes AND cake...because why pick one?





And LOOT bags for the little Men and the little Misses


My sweet boy


The Birthday Girl
(yes....walking!)


And some of the party guests






Maisy thought it was a hoot!


Cake Time!
 

 
Wasn't me


 On her actual birthday we went out for dinner and opened gifts at home



I wondered how Kippy would take it with all of the attention on her and the gifts...I should have known....he is just such a proud big brother.


Happy FIRST Birthday to our Beautiful GIRL!

  1. A great birthday post! I love how you plan a year in advance on party themes- it makes me so happy! I remember shopping in the states for decoration when Maisy was around 5-6 months. haha. Looks like everyone had a wonderful time.
