| Stella is ready to par-tay! |
Our style is more of the backyard gathering but our backyard is well, non-existent. We have some space but after making our invite list, we realized we needed more of a large park. Definitely doable where we live but nobody wants to stake out picnic tables at 8 am and have to guard them all day long. When I looked into reserving a picnic site at one of our city's parks, they were over $300. With that money, I might as well go with the petting zoo!
After much discussion and input, I think we have decided to have a small gathering at our house. My husband just brought home some darling children's yard chairs and from the looks of it, Stella is more comfortable in her own backyard (er, front yard) anyhow. I have decided on a zebra theme and will enjoying all the party supply shopping! This may mean that we have to keep the guest list small but I know that most people will understand. I will just start cutting from the in-law side. :)

Isn't it so hard to figure out the details of the "First" party!? It took me a few months to figure out what we were going to do as well ... and don't laugh but we are doing a butterfly release (goes with the theme!)- so your petting zoo idea was, uh, not really too far over the top truthfully. LOL. Whatever it is, you will have a beautiful day for Stella! :)
ReplyDeleteFirst party is one of the hardest to plan but it's all worth it!
