On Saturday, we were in Seattle celebrating Mia’s first birthday!

And this was one crazy event.  Fortunately, it was a beautiful day.

And there was a TON of food!  I made Oreo Pops and chocolate covered Ritz/peanut butter sandwiches:

They were pretty incredible.

We set up an area for the food:

And an area for the bar, bartender and desserts:

The chef was set up in the driveway with a monster grill:

I don’t know how I didn’t get a picture of the chef, but we did manage to get one of the bartender!

Oh…and the cupcakes!  Joy ordered 180 mini-cupcakes:

They were so good and I think I ate 20.  George ate more than me so that’s all that really matters.

G also tested out sitting at the head of the table…it makes him feel important.

Hi George.

He also pretended to be sitting on the deck, enjoying some water.

But at least he agreed to take a picture with me.

And that is just a taste of some of the party prep.  I’ll be back with more food, activities and recap of the party tomorrow.

Hope you all had a great weekend!
