My adorable niece had her first birthday last month. She loves to "sing" and listen to music, she even attempts to sing along. At least that is what we think she is trying to do. So the theme for her party was "You're a songbird" (thank you pinterest).

She even had her own sash and party hat.

We decorated with these cute wooden bird houses that were from the craft store for just a couple bucks each and then we painted them ourself.
Also, we had some wire bird cages and these cute little white picket fences we filled with flowers and there were flower pots filled with bird
shaped sugar cookies.

My sister made the most adorable cake and bird nest cupcakes. We even found these adorable little white picket fence cupcake wrappers to put on them. She made that cute letter I by cutting out a piece of cardboard wrapping it in yarn and adding a decorative fabric flower, I personally thought this was genius. She brought a picture frame that had a picture of her at each months age for family who dont get to see her as often, I thought this was a really nice touch.

To top it all off she had a station to paint your own birdhouse for all the kids to enjoy, combining activity with take home gift, also genius.
