For this little buckaroo's first birthday, our family mosied on down to our watering hole for some good grub and company around the campfire!
The menu consisted of BBQ pulled pork sandwiches, chili, baked potatoes with all the fixins, baked beans with bacon, hot dogs, and cole slaw. For dessert, we had vanilla cake with vanilla and chocolate icing, and s'mores.
Decor, courtesy of Pinterest, lots of cardboard and some kid-free evenings, included Wanted posters of each child guest, cardboard cacti, cowboy hats, bandannas, bales of hay, and some pretty cool saloon doors. A roaring fire completed the ambiance (thanks Sara, for your fire making expertise!)
Layla had been in the cowboy spirit for days leading up to the party, so to catch everyone up, each kid received a goodie bag filled with a glow stick "revolver", harmonica, sherrifs badges, and an awesome cowboy version of Wooly Willy, the magnetic toy where you draw hair on Willy with a magnet pen. Needless to say, the kids (and adults!) all quickly got in the cowboy spirit.
We are so very lucky to be surrounded by so much love! Thanks to everyone that celebrated the first year of this wonderful boy.
