Thanks ladies :-)

Sadly both our families are largish we'd have to invite my uncles/Aunts etc as well as DH siblings (4 plus kids etc) there are 30ish just in family I know not everyone will come but still IF they did thats a lot of people already

We have been to a few BBQ 1st bday parties and they were great, nice and relaxed and fun!!

Sounds like a great idea!

You can decorate the marque nicely.

Can't believe little miss is nearly 1.

Can't believe little miss is nearly 1.

I KNOW!!!!!~

I was reliving my story of my 4 angels ( 3 heaven and one earth bound) to a lady today and I just could not believe how far away it all seems now and that Miss is nearly out of her "baby" year and into her "toddler" years

Now I am willing AF to come back so we can start TTC again can you believe that!!

We are having a BIG 1st birthday because it's just easier to invite everyone rather than working out who to invite!! As my DD gets older it's easier to decide but for DS
1st it will be the big event. We are just having an afternoon tea with LOTS of people and kids and we're hiring a face painter ($60 an hour) because that will keep the older kids happy!!

Anyway......I was thinking in hindsight to make it easier but still fun we could have had a BREAKFAST party - BBQ!!! You could have it around 9am for a couple of hours so by lunch time everyone will be out of your hair! BBQ some bacon, eggs and sausages and do some toast and fruit and you're done!! Easy - Wish I had thought of it earlier! Anyway a BBQ is a great idea anyway!

*drool* breakfast BBQ

We do those the morning after the night before we haven't had people stay since DD was born though.

We live a long way from most of the people who will come so 9 might be a bit too early. its a great idea though!!!. On a side note I did actually tell mum today that I'll be writing in the invites 11.30 - 1.30 and that if people are still around when its her bed time I will be taking her away from the party and putting her to bed regardless of who is here or how far they travelled (her two best arguements to get around things) ... yep I am a mean biatch

Nah I think that's fair enough - it is HER day after all. If the little miss needs her sleep, the little miss needs her sleep!
