Planning an outdoor, cowboy themed party for my son's 1st. Does anyone have ideas for inexpensive decorations, favors, food and activities? Free would be even better! Thanks a lot!

I love doing parties but that is always the challenge to make it fun but inexpensive. :>  Oriental Trading Company always has cute favors, decor, etc for pretty inexpensive. They can take awhile to ship (unless you do express) so I would order early.  You could do bandanas, our really big cowboy hats, squirt guns depending how you feel about guns, sheriff pins, ... I would have to brainstorm more :>

 Otherwise, check out Familyfun.com for party ideas or AmazingMoms.com for great party ideas.

One thing I would recommend is OnceUponACupcake.net  She is based out of Mission Viejo but I am telling you they are the cutest and best cupcakes I have ever had!!!

Good Luck!
