Happy First Birthday Pilot Luis!

I planned an airplane theme for baby's first birthday party. We enjoyed a nice and hot Sunday afternoon with family and friends. 

Our guests enjoyed an "In flight Meal", which consisted of Togos sandwiches, pasta salad, fruit skewers and chips.  Dessert was cupcakes.




"Now boarding Luis' 1st Birthday"

We love auntie Janet!
It was such a piping hot day.... baby started off with clothing, but it came off pretty quickly!

Special Grandma!
Proud Grandpa!


The party decor included...

paper airplanes


airport signs

LOTS of fun airplane balloons from Nino Rafi

"In flight snack" and party hats for the kiddos


Luis, Age 1 "Likes"
kisses from grandma and grandpa * bath time* feeding himself * peek a boo, et cetera!
  I will make one each year!


Personalized pennants

I invited guests to contribute to baby's time capsule.  He will open this in 2029, on his 18th birthday! 

We were touched by creativity and thougtfulness of our loved ones.
The time capsule contains photos, special notes, clay footprint from Nino Rafi,
2012 King's Championship -tshirt from Janet, 6.22.12 LA Times Newspaper.... and much more.

My Auntie Evie brought this "Happy 18th Birthday" banner which we all signed. This banner went into the time capsule as well! What a creative idea.



My Dad did a fantastic job making this airplane for baby.  Baby loved it.






I had so much fun with planning his first birthday party.  Now I'll need to start working on party ideas and a theme for next year!

Happy FIRST Birthday to our sweet boy, Luis!
