Hello everyone and happy first day of fall!
I’m writing to you today from sunny San Diego, where fall just seems a little bit more like a cool summer day rather than the first day of fall!
This weekend we threw Kennedy her FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY! It was a blast and I had so much fun planning and decorating this party for her!
I decided to throw a pumpkin patch themed bash for my little one year old, and let me tell you, the dollar section at Target, Hobby lobby and Walmart did NOT disappoint when it comes to fall decorations.
I used my favorite website, MINTED, to create the perfect pumpkin patch party invitation.
Obviously all addresses and emails have been erased for privacy reasons but you can use this link to see the invitation live on their website. There are a couple different color, shape, and foil options as well, so you can customize it to your needs!
The decor was purchased at Hobby Lobby, Target, Amazon, Walmart, Trader Joe’s and Etsy, respectively.
Check out these photos for the decor that we used for her party! I’ve included links underneath each set of photos for everything that I bought including where I purchased all of these items so you can check them out.
