Tayah's Birthday Party

The Party:

Here is the birthday girl. If you look close, you can see that Mommy and Daddy gave her earrings for her first birthday. She did so good while getting them pierced, and barely even cried! What a big girl.

We had our families over to celebrate our baby turning one. We had dinner and then we opened her presents. She got spoiled. She got several darling outfits, some books, and a few toys. We gave her this little trike, which we had to pull her off. She loves it. I love it too, because it changes to grow with her.

When it came time for her to dig into her cake, she was so cute. She was so careful and only took tiny pieces, but I am sure that she would have sat there and ate that cake for hours. She also was sharing her cake with everyone and would hold out a piece to feed you. It was so darling and sweet.

The Cake:

My Mother-in-law has an amazing talent when it comes to decorating cakes. She even did our wedding cake, which was beautiful! She went all out on her "littlest princess's" first birthday cake! Or should I say cakes...

This is the cake she made for Tayah to dig into.

This is the cake that we served to the adults at her party.

And these are the darling cupcakes that we served to all her cousins at the party. I can't believe all the work Grandma Ruth put into these. We loved them and really appreciate all her love and kindness.

Happy 1st Birthday baby girl! We love you!
