It has been eons since I blogged, sorry. In December I was sunning myself in Port Douglas and Queenscliff and in January I was in denial about my return to work so avoided the computer. Yes, I am back at work but this post is about far more joyous events – my Moo’s 1st birthday!

We had a fantastic party yesterday surrounded by family and friends which was the perfect way to farewell my year at home and celebrate my baby not being a baby anymore. We got to meet a lot of our friends bubbas for the first time which was so special and the whole day was filled with good food, grog, lollies and love.

We decided to have a Hungry Caterpillar themed party as it’s one of Moo’s favourite books. We also used to call him our little caterpillar because of his very unique way of crawling. Coming from a marketing/events background and being completely anal about everything means I went to town on the lolly/fruit table and other details. I just can’t help myself. I spent many nights in front of the TV glueing pom poms onto party hats, stencilling number 1s and designing canister labels. I was so happy with the end result and I know we will treasure the memories for a lifetime.

Here are a few pics from the party…
