A Party fit for a Princess

We had Miss B’s first birth­day party at our house on Sun­day.  Just as we did for Ty’s first birth­day, we invited all of our extended fam­i­lies over to cel­e­brate this day with us.  It was so nice to see every­one and to have them all over to the new house.

Here’s the birth­day girl hav­ing her morn­ing break­fast.  Ty said “I won­der if she’ll look older now that she’s one” before she woke up in the morn­ing.  I think he was a bit dis­ap­pointed when we went in her room to see that she still looked the same! LOL

As soon as b’fast was over, it was time to get the giant cup­cake cake dec­o­rated for the party!  We had a cup­cake themed party.

We also had a whole slew of smaller cup­cakes for every­one.  I loved this Cup­cake Stand, it was so cute to dis­play them all!  To feed my Esty addic­tion, I got these adorable cup­cake wrap­pers and per­son­al­ized cup­cake top­pers.  I just loved how they all came together for the dis­play!  And Tyson was such a good lit­tle helper and put all of the giant sprin­kles on the lit­tle cup­cakes. 

It’s Party time!!  Here with Grandpa Al & Grandma Arlene.  Adorable birth­day dress from here and bow from here.

The dainty pinky in the air.  Don’t we all eat our crack­ers like this? LOL

Who are all of these peo­ple and why are they here?

Time to sing!

Good thing we have our help­ful big brother around to blow out the can­dles for us!

Time to enjoy a cupcake

SO big!

Time to open some present!

She LOVES her new tea party set!

Tea any­one?

I’m still hop­ing to get a Bailey’s first year post up later this week, so stay tuned for that!

& 8"> Project 52: Week 7 & 8

I know, I’m late post­ing my Week 7 photo, but I’m sure you guys can for­give me since we’re in PACKING HELL!!!  So, here’s last week’s and this week’s, all in one post.  And this is prob­a­bly the last one I’ll post from our old house! Yay!

Here’s last week’s.  I’m doing an online pho­tog­ra­phy work­shop and was try­ing to work on get­ting a motion blur shot.  There’s so many tech­ni­cal things wrong with this photo, but I still love it and it cracks me up.  This was Tyson’s ver­sion of Cross-Country ski­ing while we were watch­ing the olympics.  In case you can’t tell, that’s two hockey sticks as skiis, and his poles are a golf club and a bat.

And for Week 8.  Bai­ley got this cute lit­tle stool that is a puz­zle with her first and mid­dle name on in.  She’s OBSESSED with tak­ing all of the let­ters off and putting them all back on top of it (and into any assort­ment of con­tain­ers as well).  She’s still not crawl­ing yet, but I’m actu­ally happy this week for that with all of the pack­ing we’ve been doing.  It’s keep­ing her out of a lot less trou­ble!

My Funny Valentines

Hope you all have a day filled with love!  Here’s our loves.  We’re so blessed to have them in our lives.

Best Buds!

Here’s Ty and his best buddy on their first day of preschool this year.  I’m SO behind on shar­ing lay­outs, so stay tuned for a bunch more!
