makena's first birthday party...

ahhh!

The PARTY!

I went a tad bit overboard I'm sure....but my Buggy turned ONE. 

For me it was go all out for my sweetness. 

She deserved it. 

I deserved to put my entire heart into planning the perfect day.

I am a picture obsessed momma...I went and got Makena's photos taken every month for the entire year and displayed them across the window:

I also strung and hung photos of the chick....everywhere:

My biggest fear was there wouldn't be kiddos at her party...with the hectic life we live we don't get out much...but the few sweet friends we have turned out and the Bugs was in kid heaven...

Guests....

 Food:
I kept it simple...sandwhiches, pasta, fruit....

Cake...

I for sure went crazy for her cake...a bit pricy too:

Notice the framed picture of her brushing her teeth next to the sugary, teeth decaying, delight:

This high chair...both my sister and I sat in on our first birthdays:

She doesn't know what to think...

Yup...you see that clown...more on that later...

She loved it...

Gifts...Chick walked out of this party a rich lady....lucky.

Everything's a book to her....

Those boots are from momma...they're as big as her but I couldn't resist...Thank you Target....

Bug's saying thank you....

We had a pinata! You know you don't beat the pinatas anymore...you pull strings....how not fun....

You're loving the clown....I know....

Ahhhh sweet moments with the Great Gram....

All in all it was a great day!!!

My sweets did so well...she had a nap in the morning then partied all day...she's such a troopper!!

More on the party tomorrow!!
