I have a toad’ally awesome kid’s birthday party to share with you! A friend from high school, Kristen, threw a fabulous first birthday party for her son Preston and was grateful enough to share with us all the wonderful details of the day. A lot of the desserts and decorations Kristen did herself! I loved how they came out with the theme because really it was very personal and apparently very Preston.

“Inspiration for theme: Preston’s love for a little frog on his Jumperoo at 4 months old inspired me to do something magical with this bond. Preston would coo, talk and drool all over the plastic frog for hours. No matter which way we would spin the jumperoo seat, he ALWAYS went back to Mr. Frog. This love sparked the idea for a fun, colorful, and classy birthday party. Much thought went into the fact that most party guests would be adults. With a fun and simple theme, I just let my creative juices flow. This was my first party, and I can’t wait to upstage it next year. The ideas are already brewing! Others who helped tremendously: My Mother, Maureen helped with baking and decorating. I also have to thank my fabulous husband, Brett, for going along with my ideas, no matter how crazy and over-the-top they were.”

A cute humongo toad greets you at the door. You know this is going to be a good party.

I love these little pails that people get to fill up with delicious treats. Get ready for the awesome dessert table!

Look at all those yummy desserts!



“Pond water” and JellyBelly drinks for the kids

Their playroom is so awesome!


The beautiful mommy.
Best mommy ever! She let this little guy go to town on his own birthday cake. I love his matching onesie.

Complementary thank you cards.

Kristen, I hope you do continue to throw more wonderful parties in the future!
Can’t wait to see what you come up with next!
