Scarlett's 1st Birthday!

Seriously what an awesome year! That's the best way I can put it. Scarlett has been such a great baby we are just so in love with her. Now I remember what we did the rest of Thanksgiving weekend we had Scarlett's party! ha
We had a party at my parents house to celebrate our wonderful little girls 1st year of life with family and a few friends. Thanks to everyone who was able to come and who helped with all the preparation I really appreciate it!
I don't think I could have asked for a better, sweeter, cuter baby to call my own. She brings so much joy into our life. Her little personality is really showing and I'm excited to get to be there first hand to enjoy all of it.
Our precious little thing who, like many babies, isn't in love with sitting still to take a picture. While preparing for the party, I was determined to bring my parents trampoline which weighs a billion pounds out front for the kids to play on. The wound on my toe shows that the trampoline won that battle and it stayed in the backyard. As we were trying to move it I stupidly wearing flip flops jammed the big toe and lost half of the nail. Not a pretty site or a good feeling, but it's recovering nicely. Probably a lesson for me to know that I can't always get my way. : )

So since I joined pinterest I went a little overboard trying to make a few crafts for her party(that looked simple and not time consuming, I was wrong). I just made the dots and the banners, Tempestt made the cute puffs for Brielle's party so I borrowed them.

It was fun going through her pictures over the past year and remembering all the fun times.


Thanks to Nicki for her cute birthday get up. Aunt Nicki and both grandma's love to dress her so cute.





Yay for toys! I was being a mean mommy and not wasting my money on toys when a wooden spoon was her favorite thing to play with but she is just crazy for them. So we take more regular trips to the toys/book isle.
Mmm birthday cake! I made cupcakes and then a extra big cupcake for Scarlett. She was ready for a nap by this point and hadn't quite found her sweet tooth just yet (that's changed).




Our family! SO in love with them, even though Jon was complaining about have to take these pictures.
