The Party...

(***Warning: loads of cute photos...friggin blogger won't upload all of them, but enjoy what i managed to post!!***)

After hours of painting, shopping, tutu making, red bull drinking, candy eating, crying, and decorating we did it. For the sake of my sanity, I'm glad its over....but I'm not gonna lie, it pulled at the heart strings just a little bit. My baby turned one last week, and last night we spent the evening celebrating in her honor...

Welcome to Little Miss Presley's 1st Birthday Winter Candyland....

{The decorations were out in full effect...}


{Pull up a chair at the candy bar...mmmmm}


{I'm getting a cavity just looking at this picture}


{Surprisingly the kids left the decorations in tact!}


{Gumdrops and lollipops for our sweet little miss...}


{Little Miss Candy Cane in her birthday suit!! Love it!!}


{Poofball of cuteness...my uterus is screaming}


{Quite possibly the cutest thing I've ever seen}


{Oh yeah! Friends and family were there too!}


{She makes the best decoration...}


{Birthday cake #1}


{Birthday cake #2....moments before annihilation!}


{Pfftt...No....I wouldn't make a tutu just for her high chair...
that would just be a tad excessive... :) }


{She wasn't quite sure of it at first...}


{But she ended up digging in!}


All in all it was an awesome night!! The kids huffed candy in the corner while the adults gorged themselves on snacks. The Little Miss got lots of love and goodies. And I got to see the smile on my baby girls face as she basked in her poofball glory!! I call that a success.

  7. Gorgeous party, GORGEOUS Presley - definitely a success all around! I love the decorations and the tutus ... my idea of "party theme" is whatever comes in a coordinating pack at a party supply store. :)

  11. Ohmygosh, you have got to be the PARTY QUEEN! I thought Logan's party this weekend rocked, but yours blew it out of the water! It's hard for those close-to-Christmas babies, because you have to make the theme work with your Christmas decorations. Logan had a Super(hero) Christmas party this year. Lol. Complete with red spiderman and green incredible hulk cupcakes. I'll post pics eventually. But seriously, you are welcome to take over my party planning from here on out!

  26. I can't express how badly I want that tutu. And I believe my future children will all wear tutus on their birthdays. The boys, admittedly, will look a little silly, but I think they'll grow to love it.

    The picture of Ms. Kandy Kane with your husband is so cute.
