I had the most fun planning Stellan's 1st birthday party! I chose the Very Hungry Caterpillar for the theme, and the possibilities seemed endless for food and decorations!
I enlisted the help from some of the youngins to make caterpillar kabobs!
I made these bookmarks for favors:
Ellen made this FABULOUS banner!
I think my favorite touch for the party was picking the menu from the food in the book. Then I put little labels in each dish with a quote from the book such as, "on Thursday he ate through 4 strawberries, but he was still hungry":
The yummy food!
Smash cake! Fact: this "1" candle was Caleb's. We never lit it for Caleb's party because he was sick and didn't want any cake. :( But hey, it worked for Stellan's party so we finally got to use it!
The birthday boy just woke up from a nap and is sporting his birthday caterpillar outfit that Grammy made him! So cute!!!
Favor jars:
Another glimpse of the food table. The food was my favorite part! ha!
The caterpillar cake:
Mmmm, he was all about some cake!
Present time! I was surrounded by children. :)
Lots of family and friends were able to join us for the party. 
Hanging out with Pops. :)
It was a GREAT party and we are so blessed to have so many wonderful family and friends!! We love you! And happy 1st birthday, Stellan!!!!

Can you explain what exactly you did for the food. I have so many ideas, but can't decide on what would be best. Was it all snack food or did you do a main dish as well?
Good Evening,
Can you please tell me how you made the book marks? I love the idea!
