Nautical Photo of the Week: Patriotic First Birthday

This week I am featuring a patriotic nautical first birthday party! Natasha from Schue Love did a nautical theme for her son Ethan's first birthday party the weekend after 4th of July. The family celebrated Ethan with a backyard party at their house. You can see more photos of the birthday boy and his party here

The family's photographer, Darcy of Artyard Photography, blew up a favorite photo of Ethan. The star garland is from Shapes on a String and the anchor labels are from Harriet Ann Creative.
