This past Saturday we packed our house with lots of friends and family to celebrate a BIG accomplishment…we made it through Lilly’s 1st year! Yay!! We had a bubble party, with bubbles, balls, a bubble machine, some round food and even a bubble cake! Although a lot of the guests did not really see “circles” like I did, but it was fun to plan. On the menu was fruit salad with melon balls, meatballs a la bbq sauce, a cheese ball, deviled eggs and pasta salad with wagon wheel pasta, cherry tomatoes, black olives and mini pepperonis. Ok so maybe I went a tad over board but I love the idea of a themed party. I also went out on a limb and made the cake myself. Twelve hours of cooking and decorating, and about 3 major meltdowns made a beautiful cake if I must say so myself!
Ok so here begins the picture overload **you have been warned**
Momma also thinks that the party is not complete without an outfit change!
Mike and I had a lengthy conversation later that evening about how great Lilly was, she did not mind being held by people she had never met before. And if you know Lilly that is an amazing feat! She even reached out for a few of our friends. I must apologize to everyone who came though, we totally intended on opening presents, but Lilly partied so much she couldn’t even stay awake for the last 30 minutes of her party. I promise that Lilly loves all of her gifts and has been playing with and wearing all of them!
We had a wonderful time with all of our friends and family, and cannot wait to do it again next year!
