This past Saturday we had Parker's 1st birthday party & it was a huge success. I had debated in the beginning whether to have a small, family type party or go all out. Well I love planning parties so after I started I couldn't stop so the party grew and grew. I loved every minute of planning her party. I got wonderful ideas from my friend Ashley. I have also looked at many many blogs. A friend Jessica has planned precious parties for her daughter so I got a few ideas from her awhile back. I LOVE TomKat. Many of my ideas also came from countless hours searching Etsy.
We planned a cupcake "tuptake" themed party for P. It all came from an inside joke between Tanner & I so we went with it.We had tons of family & friends that clebrated her Big 1 with her! She recieved tons of fun toys and a mound of precious, precious clothes! She even devoured her cake :) Parker recieved her One year shots on Thursday & the nurse warned us that she would be cranky for a couple days and probably break out with a rash (measles/mumps/chicken pox vaccine). Great! She did very well but you could tell she didn't feel wonderful, poor girl. We didn't get many smiles from her but she seemed in a good mood the whole party. Sunday we had to wake up early to get ready for pictures; we got a few smiles out of her there.
I am glad it's over though I had so much fun planning it. I really should have thought about party planning for my career. It's over now & we have a
ONE YEAR OLD!!!
Enjoy the Pictures!!
Some pictures from her actual birthday!
Some yummy dinner at Outback followed by Your Way Yogurt
And of course some present opening =)
