Eva's First Birthday
Eva's first birthday was a Minnie Mouse theme.We were going to Disneyland almost three times a week and her favorite thing was seeing the characters. Here is a picture of her with Minnie that I used in a frame at her party that all the guests signed.
I made all the decorations from scratch from looking up images of what other people have done for Minnie parties online. Then I just put my own twist on everything I liked. I bought TONS of paper and spent hours with a Cricut machine, and went to town!
Here was Auntie making delicious cake pops - Red Velvet dipped in chocolate with Minnie Mouse bows...mmmm they were fantastic!
Our welcome sign on the front door.
Sign I made attached to painted chop sticks stuck into just a painted styrofoam circle.
I LOVE this banner! I actually still have it because I can't get myself to toss it!
These were little Minnie Mouse head cut outs I taped onto the gift wrapping ribbons and curled. I hung those all over for an extra POP of Minnie. (I put a Minnie head on each side so you couldn't see the tape and the string.)

It was a fantastic party and the very beginning of what would end up being my new favorite hobby - throwing parties!
