BIRTHDAY BASH 2010

LADY TURNS 1
HERE'S HOW IT WENT...

Kevins mom and I made a BAZILLION (150... well 145 after we each ate a few) cupcakes

Then we decorated them all fancy like. Some even had fresh homemade lemon curd and strawberry icing.

I made a bunch of these super easy Pom-Poms to hang in the trees

Like that. And we had lights in the sky hung... for ambiance

Then Kevin accidently cut his leg... thanks to my mom for taking him to get 15 stitches, 30 min before the party.  (ya, that purple stuff is muscle, and that cut is about 3 inches long)

Don't fret. He made it back in time and looked super cute-to boot

After a little nap, diaper change and some dinner... Lady-bug made an appearance at her party. She wore 3 outfits. First, her cupcake casual wear (worn throughout the day)
Second, her cupcake gingham dress (worn at the party pre-cake eating) that Grammy purchased months ago
Third, after wearing her birthday suit to eat cake in, she wore another cupcake number that Nana got her.

D-lishous slider burgers and sides were served.
And the Pinata was a HIT. Literally. Ha!

The kidlettes reaped the benefit of the pinata

We sang. I cried. What else is new?

Layla daintily tested her first sweets. Her very own gigantuan cupcake

A party isn't a PARTY without sparklers... and not one single burn

Layla tested out her new chair and watched the 10 min video montage we made documenting her first year.

We enjoyed the moments and know that we're so lucky

And I think Lady did too.

Hmmm.... Only 357 days 10 hours and 30 min to plan the next party.
I best get crackin
