My baby turned 1 on October 17th! Say what?! We celebrated a few days early since Dave's dad was getting married the day after her birthday and we figured things were going to be pretty busy. So the Sunday before her birthday we partied with family.
But of course, first is the decoration I made. Yes, I saw it on Pinterest, where else? And I love the way it came out. I made a picture garland.
Here's a close up of the pictures I used.
And here's the finished product.
Anyway, for her party we did dinner, cake, opened presents, and played games.
Emma's cupcake.
The cupcake cake. I have yet to figure out how to nicely frost this kind of cake.
She liked the cake but I don't think she liked being messy.
The wonderful family who came to celebrate with us.
Her presents.
The morning of her actual birthday we had a special breakfast of cinnamon rolls and put her in her birthday outfit...I was very tempted to write birthday suit. :)
And then the rest of the day was spent at my father-in-law's house prepping for the wedding the next day and just spending time with all the family that came into town.
There was flower prepping and food prepping.
And Jocelyn and Uncle Mike had fun with a "face" game. This picture cracks me up. And I love that Ben photobombed it.
I laugh Jocelyn's face in the last picture. It had Rachel and me laughing. We also loved the garland and how Emma was either grumpy or crying in most of the pictures.
