Let's go bananas

We were a bunch of crazy Monkeys for Lincoln's 1st birthday party. I am super bummed that I did not get to take pictures of out front or that the picture of the birthday banner I made did not turn out.
So, as guests arrived they were greeted by Monkey cut outs that led them to the front door. There they were greeted by a hanging monkey.
We had yummy food, which I had tons of thumbs up for:) Nothing better than a fresh pasta salad and bruschetta on toasted baguette bread, oh and a veggie tray never disappoints. While Lincoln munched on his Monkey smash cake, the guests enjoyed vanilla cupcakes with banana runts on top:)

This pot belly monkey guarded the bunch of bananas sitting on the table!!

We had hanging monkeys everywhere:) Also you will notice a banner of Lincoln's pictures. I did a timeline of when he was born up until his birthday. Hard to believe he was so tiny!

There's the birthday boy:)

Opening presents was not that important to him once he got a ball:)

Oh look, it's those sneaky girls;) I am super glad that Kathy and Mrs. Fitch(still like saying that) could come join us. Kathy was Peyton's preschool teacher and Olivia was one of my all time favorite co-workers:) Kathy too:)

He was surprisingly conservative with this cake. I thought he would hammer it, but he played it safe!!

Nothing says party like a bunch of grown ups jumping on a trampoline:)

Peyton and Savannah were an item that day!! No joke when they said good bye to each other it was a make out session. We have it on video. They were kissing and hugging and laughing it up~ hysterical!!!

Didn't take long for him to figure this out:) Way to go Lincoln!!

A pinata too??? Yep, I added a few toddler snacks so Saavy and Lincoln didn't feel left out!

Oh boy, a bubble lawn mower!!

This is one happy little boy! He is loved by everyone who meets him! Hope you loved your party, little monkey!!
