Happy Birthday Presley Rain!

I can't believe my baby girl is one year old already! It feels like she was a newborn just yesterday and like she has been in my life forever all at the same time! I never could have imagined just how much joy this little girl would bring to our life in such a short time. I can hardly wait to see what the future holds for our little butterfly!



Of course, you can't have a birthday without having a party so here are some of the details from the big day...

decorations...
the cake...
more decorations...

sweet Paigey...
a little area for the kids...

the favors (bug catchers full of gummy worms, butterflies, and caterpillars)...
limeade for a hot day...

more of the favors...
butterfly cupcakes for the kids...


and of course, The Birthday Girl!



To my disappointment, Presley had very little interest in her cake and definatley didn't smash it.


But don't worry, the cake did not go to waste. Paige was much more interested in it than she was in her own cake last month!

Presley (and her parents) felt so grateful to have so many of her great family and friends here for the party. We are so blessed that they would go out of their way to make this day special for us.
And thank you to everyone for all the sweet gifts. Presley is in heaven with so many new things to play with and I'm in heaven with all the fun new things to dress her in!

My mom and dad gave Presley and Paige each an American Doll Baby and they both just love them. Especially their eyes.


I had to throw this picture in...Presley asking for a snack (signing) in the middle of her present opening. Apparently she was working so hard she worked up an appetite!


And what would a party be without the food?








Thanks again to everyone who was there and for all the help from our families. We love you all so much and are so grateful that you are all a part of Presley's life.
And thanks to my great sister for being my personal photographer for the day!
