GOOD NIGHT MOON PARTY INSPIRATION

Last month, I had the privilege of working with some really fabulous ladies to help plan a party for a little boy celebrating his first birthday!  This party was extra-special because baby Shane would have his daddy home from the military just in time to celebrate his first birthday.  Shane and his father hadn't seen each other since Shane was 5 months old.  Shane's mom, Emily, wrote and asked if she could buy a Party Plan from me to help her with the birthday party.  I was happy to send over ideas to Emily, and I mentioned to a group of party friends that if they had anything that I could suggest to Emily for the party, please let me know.  Well, these ladies did more than that!  They let me know and then they got to work making decorations, gifts, and treats for Shane.  It was all done out of the kindness of their hearts.  All of the items were sent to another state and Emily set up the party herself.  I was so pleased to be able to let her know about the goodness of these ladies- little party fairies!  I asked the ladies to send snapshots of the items that they made to send for Shane's party, and I am sharing these with you.  The theme was Good Night Moon, and here are some of the party goods that were a part of the special first birthday!
