Wow I can't believe my baby is already one year old. The time really flew by and he's growing so fast! For his first birthday we did a Sock Monkey theme. It was a lot of fun :)
I made this pennant banner of out Sock Monkey scrapbook paper and some ribbon. Super easy and I love how it turned out! I got the tutorial from
here.
Of course I used my favorite cupcake stand and ordered some toppers from a seller on Etsy
Oh My Gluestick. I got the idea from one of my favorite blogs
Tom Kat Studio.
Thanks to help from Mimi, Star, and Don I was able to get a lot of different Sock Monkey's for the party

Red Velvet cake and Pastry Pride icing...easy and yummy
At first he wasn't sure
Just a little taste
Then he turned into Michael Jackson :)
OH YAH....that's better
There was cake shrapnel everywhere. I even found some two days later on the wall across the room.
