Our Little Monkey is 1!!

On Saturday we had a little party for Blake's 1st birthday at our house. I decided to do a monkey theme, which turned out SOOO cute! I found a Martha Stewart Crafts monkey birthday party kit online (on sale, no less!) and it made my life so easy. I loved the color scheme and it was just the right cuteness for his 1st B-Day! It came with the invites, favor bags & tags, cups, plates & napkins, little cupcake picks, and even some extra stickers. The best deal I've found in a long time! It all turned out so cute...

I made the cake, smash cake and cupcakes to match the motif...

Here's a close up of the cake. And yes, I made the monkey, too!

I decided to do caramel apples for the favors (with Gena's suggestion) and they turned out to be a big hit! Even the adults wanted one :)

He was a little reluctant to dig in at first, but liked the little monkey on top!

I think we have a little musician on our hands...
