Caroline's 1st Birthday

I figured since missy's birthday was over a month ago, now would be a good time to blog about it. ;-)

I had such good intentions to make Caroline's 1st birthday a huge pretty pink party, but this was all I got around to doing/getting:


Caroline's brothers got in on the pretty pink birthday fun while the birthday girl was napping. Goofy smiles and all ready to go!


Can you resist this shot?


The menu and guest list was kept simple. Immediate family members and all grandparents were welcome to come and join in the fun. Everyone enjoyed pizza, cake (that I made), and homemade ice cream (is there a better kind)? :o) 

Cake Shots





(Don't you just love her?)

I'm sure it isn't a surprise to you when I say we had to remove her cute tutu after the cake feasting event was done... so we moved right into jammies so she could be comfy while opening all her gifts.



Open it Great Grandma!


Did someone say tea time?




Like a true child....who cares about clothes? Get outta here!





My 1st Cabbage Patch Doll



The entire day was very nice, the weather was fantastic, and my birthday girl (and her mommy) was exhausted by the end of the party. How time does fly, 1 year ago Caroline Marie was born in just 2.5 hours. Crazy!

Oh she is too cute for words Amber! What a perfect party for your little princess on her first birthday.

I am SO with you on the Christmas decor! I'm thinking of putting it up very soon after Halloween. It's so much work and I (like you) want to enjoy it as long as possible! Can't wait!!! Post pics of your decor. I'd love to see it all!

What a beautiful little princess!!!! Those pictures are priceless. The boys will not believe they wore her hat - a great picture to blackmail them with. Looks like everyone had a great time and the cake looked wonderful.
