Aurora's First Thanksgiving (a little late)

Whew! The big birthday party is over and it was a success! I thought about doing a quick little update with some pictures and a fuller post later but then I realized there was no Thanksgiving post! Figured I'd fix that little boo boo first, so here you go!
We went over to my roommate/bestie's family's house for Thanksgiving and I took a short break from party planning. Didn't get too many pictures and lots came out blurry from some reason but here's a couple.
Aurora's Thanksgiving outfit!

Playing in her favorite bin of big dog toys.

First time in this booster seat, came in handy later!!

First Thanksgiving turkey!!


A little after dinner snooping!
That's all I've got for now. I'm still in post party haze so my brain is mush at the moment. Time for some much needed worry free sleep. I promise I'll be back super soon with the birthday party update! I have a ton of pictures to go through and maybe I'll even get a short video up!! Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Birthday party INSANITY!!!!!

Aurora's 1st birthday party is this Sunday! Her actual birthday isn't until the 30th but Sunday is more convenient and we're going to do something special on her actual birthday, just the two of us... three if Auntie Poo wants to join. I've been really internet absent because planning this party has taken over my life! Haha... I know it'll be fun and memorable but I almost can't wait for it to be over already!
We don't have a ton of money but I've scrimped and saved where I could and I'm hand-making the majority of the decorations and preparing all of the food myself. I also rarely have company over and I've been in home-improvement overdrive. I'm burning the birthday candle at both ends!
Lot's to be done still but I'm taking a night off from the madness. I've decided that I have earned an hour or so on the internerd and a night of trashy TV.. though I may sneak in a small sewing project. I can't wait to show you guys everything I put together... I'm super excited about it! The only thing I'm willing to give away is that it's a woodland/forest theme. Here's the invites:
Hope everyone is doing well! I can't wait to wind down and catch up on all of your posts! I'll also try to sneak in my Wordless Wednesday and a Thanksgiving update amid the chaos.
