<![CDATA[Birthday]]>So when it came time for my youngest son’s first birthday I really thought about what he loved the most and hence the banana birthday was born.

I wanted to make the invitation from something that was cheap, wouldn’t just be thrown away and that would be fun. I was really excited with the result, a banana invitation:

I took inspiration from here for the birthday crown:

We made a mix cd of some family favorites and my brother (who is an amazing artist) made/stole the cover from Andy Warhol:

I got this really cute shirt from etsy (I wish I could remember which shop it was so I could give the woman credit):

Here are the brothers on the slide, my oldest is holding a bean bag I made out of some thrifted pjs:

A good time was had by all:

I’m going to cut this short because, a) It’s not really that short and  b) my family has been waiting for me to finish up so we can go to the library.

I have the Ancient Egyptian birthday and another 1st birthday to share. Hold your breath.
