Is it too early for adoption party planning???

I have some ideas for E's adoption party. DH wants to rent one of those bouncy houses and seeing as how its not likely to still be warm enough for an outdoor party we will most likely do it at our church or rent out a hall big enough. I plan on a big cake w/ E's picture and full name (his new last name!). Some simple but yummy finger foods. Drink?? Since we don't drink alcohol thinking an ice tub full of juice/soda/water or some kind of punch, haven't decided yet. I also think we should rent a popcorn machine and a cotton candy machine??? Not sure\...because that would seem very carnival like...but I do want it to be fun and for the kids with it being enjoyable for adults, okay maybe we will nix that sticky messy idea. I plan on inviting everyone from Social services that has touched our lives. I don't think they get a lot of positives and I think that despite our differences with some workers, (umm Maya's worker and supervisor) it would be a nice gesture. I don't know if people expect to give presents at an adoption party but I don't care. I plan on putting on invitation "In lieu of a gift please make donation in honor of "E" to "charity" of our choice. We were nominated for "family of the year" by somebody who I guess doesn't know us well, sponsored by the charity I would like to donate to. They support nurturing and helping families in our community to prevent foster care. They honored all families nominated with a dinner, it was wonderful and as I had visits with Maya at this community center before her mom went threatening and violent at one visit and they had to be moved to the county building, I have really good feelings towards them. I really liked their SW's and their mission. I don't really want gifts nor does E need any gifts. I plan on getting a name plaque designed by a local artist with a quote on it for his room-any ideas for a good quote??? I will display that. I also plan on scheduling a professional family photo shoot and displaying our family portrait. The one thing that I am on the fence about is if we should somehow honor the SW who placed E with us, she's the only reason we ever did end up adopting through foster care in the first place, and the person who basically gave E to us. She commited suicide last year after a co-worker commited suicide. She was the best worker we had in our 3 years and several children/workers later. She has 2 daughters (grown) who I would like to invite. I'm just wondering if we should switch donation in her name and honor her??? Or is that too much? I don't know. Dh will most likely have his 2 cents if he ever comes home from the mountains. I would like to make a life book for E and display that, not the private info. more along the lines of a scrapbook. The only thing that bugs me is I Keep asking his first foster family for baby pictures, she keeps putting me off. I don't have a single baby picture of him!!! I suppose I can start it at 11 months. But for the future, for E I need some of his baby pictures. I'm going to hunt down some of his relatives if I have to (after adoption), I know they have pictures of him as a baby to 3 months old. Thats what I have so far. Open to comments.
