Answer 1

You might want to consider deciding on a theme. You might pick something where you can pick up decorations at the Dollar Store to save money. You can get a few balloons, tablecloths, and some streamers. You might also want to consider having the adults play some games, since there will not be a lot of children at the party.(You could even have the adults play childhood games)  You could get one of those frames where you put a picture in the center and people can write around the photo, and you can have the adults write their favorite memory of your son in his first year, and then you can put it up in his room.

Answer 6

I always had a "big cake" for the guests and a little cake for the baby to tear into.  Something else that I have heard about is giving the guest disposable cameras.  You are there to celebrate a 1 year old so as long as he and your stepson have fun thats what really matters.  I think the pool party idea is always no fail.  Having food there that you dont have to prepare makes it more enjoyable for you to.  Sounds like you have it covered, unless you have  a pinata' for the stepson and the adults.  That is always a big hit for even the "biggest kid".  Have fun and enjoy!!!!!!!!!

Answer 7

think of a game that you and your family will

be the player....

the 2 kids in the family

will realize how lucky they are

that they belong to a happy family

money and a fabulous party are useless

without a loving family at your side...
