Birthday Party Details

Clover's first birthday is coming up in just a few days and we are so excited about her party next Saturday.  By chance we have rain, we can still have all the activities in the barn.

Location

Gullion Farms is a beautiful, relaxing farm.  It is also a real working farm.  The farm is located off of Hwy 67 not too far from Brewer High School. Here are links to the directions from each area to the farm:

Time:  12pm-3pm

The party starts at noon and we will have lunch out at that time.  All the activities are planned from 12pm-2pm.  I plan on having cake at 1:30pm.  Please do not feel you need to stay until 3pm.  Normally they have parties that last 2 hours, but I have requested an extra hour so we do not have to be rushed and would have plenty of time to visit with each other.

Lunch

I am planning on having sliced turkey from Apple Lane Farms, Potato Salad, Pasta Salad, fresh fruit and vegetables and bread.  We will also have some PB&J sandwiches.  Please let me know if you have any special needs for lunch.

Activities

Though the farm party activities are geared for children, it will be fun for all ages.  There will be a roping station, egg gathering, fishing, petting zoo (goats, chickens, bunnies, piglets, goats, sheep),  and pony rides. You do not need to bring any supplies like fishing poles. 

Photographer

We will have a local photogragher, Halley Winton,  for the entire party.  She will be snapping candid photos and we will have the rights to all photos.  We will make sure everyone gets all the best shots.  This will be a great time for everyone to be in the photos and also some group shots.  You are also welcome to take as many pictures as you like.

Birthday Cake

I will be making Clover a special cake for her to dig into for her first taste.  It will be a healthy cake and I will make extra for anyone else that would prefer that to the traditional cake.  We will also have a traditional cake.

Miscellaneous Info

There will be picnic tables outside and there will also be a nice area inside the barn for sitting, eating and visiting.  There is also an indoor bathroom in the barn.  Please dress how ever you will feel most comfortable. You may want to wear closed toe shoes (not flip flops or sandals).

Please let me know if you need any more information or if I can provide any special needs you have. 

If you have not, please remember to RSVP as soon as you can so I will make sure we have plenty of food and drinks.  I am looking forward to meeting many of you for the first time, as well as excited about Clover seeing all of her family.
