For Jackson's 1st birthday, Brent and I decided to have a small family birthday party. We held off on buying the party materials until we were in North Carolina. I was certain that we would find little boy or 1st birthday party supplies easily, but I was proven wrong.
There are tons of cartoon characters and baby boys items, but no1st birthday party supplies. After searching high and low, we finally found some cute animal themed supplies at Party City. Then having no luck on a cake to match, we bought a Wilton cake pan in the shape of a #1 at AC Moore and called it a day.
After setting up the party supplies and decorating the cake, family and friends joined us in celebrating Jackson's 1st birthday. We began the celebration with a little playtime!

Next, he ate one of his favorite meals, hot dogs, followed by reading birthday cards and opening presents.
In preparation for the cake smash, everyone put on their festive birthday hats!
Grandma Vaughan made this very cool cupcake cake. You can't tell by the pictures, but the cake was bigger than Jackson's head!
He wasn't quite sure what to do at 1st, so I gave him a little taste and before I could get out of the way ...
...he was covered in chocolate!
Happy 1st Birthday Jackson!
