Brady's 1st Birthday -- Safari Style

My nephew's first birthday was earlier this summer. My sister (one of the most creative people I know) let me help her plan this special party and it was so much fun! The party had a safari theme and tiny details around the living room and kitchen made it fun for guests to walk from one part of the house to another. For instance, in the kitchen, she had the cutest cake ever! In the dining room -- hanging above her spread of kabobs, rice, fruit, veggies and desserts -- were pictures of my nephew throughout the first year of his life. Children left the party with gift bags filled with safari themed items and adults left cookies from The Cookie Bouquet.
