Our girl is ONE

It is crazy to me to think that it has been a year since we went to the hospital and came home with a beautiful bundle of love. It has been such a fast year and I only get teary because it has been so wonderful and because everyone was right-they do grow up too fast. We celebrated Miss P's first birthday with a bang this Saturday. I did not so much have a theme, just lots of pretty colors, simple cute decorations. It turned out just like I imagined and was seriously such an amazing day! Here is a photo recap....and I will warn, this is kind of lengthy.


Used our entry table for the favors. I decided to do little treat bags with note from Presley. Guests filled their bags will dried cranberries, M&M's, and iced animal cookies. I apologize for the sugar highs that occurred after the party.
 Cakes were made by Eggleston's Edibles and they were such a hit. She did an amazing job incorporating all the colors and the cake matched the cake on the invitations perfectly.

 This is an awful picture, but I hung her monthly picture from clothespins so we could all see how she has grown.

 
We rented a moonwalk to keep the kiddos busy. It was sure a hit by kids of all ages....from age 1 to age 28. 






 Cake time!!! Everyone was commenting on how neat and tidy she was being, until she realized she could put it in her hair. She really enjoyed it!


Family pic time. Her precious birthday outfit was inspired by something I saw on Etsy. My very talented mother in law sewed it for her, we found the perfect fabric & added the little suspenders so the skirt would stay put. She's amazing and now I just added sewing lessons to my Christmas list. Spencer's says I am old, I say I am a crafty wanna be.





 It gets harder and harder to get her to cooperate for pictures. Oh well, I take what I can get!
We added a wagon our collection of toys with wheels. Actually we added several new toys with wheels. The girls had so much fun pulling each other around.

It was so much fun to have our new house filled up with people for the first time. It feels more like home now! We are sure lucky to have such great family & friends.
