Exploding First Birthday Invitation List...

[shevacc]

I thought of the 1st birthday party also as a celebration of us surviving the baby year, plus they don't really have real friendships yet anyway. But we limited our guest list by picking a location that only really fit about 25 people . Otherwise I would've invited closer to 50, probably.

we had about 45 adults and 15 kids under 3 at bjl's first birthday party. that's ATTENDED. i don't even want to know how many people we invited.

we invited every last speck of family, and then all of our close friends, and then friends with kids her age, even if we weren't very "close" with the friends..just regular friends.

like pp, 2nd birthday will prob just be very close friends, but still all (extended) family...that's just the way my fam does it.
