Lilly Belle's First!

Our little girl is not a newborn anymore! She is walking and babbling and oh so enjoyable! We planned an Air Balloon theme and was able to gather quite a bit of inspiration. She LOVES Balloons, so it was fitting. Here are some of our displays.
I really wanted an area that highlighted her first year. I love this old window seal that draped pictures of Lilly. We set all her presents on this table and even had a cute guest sign in for anyone to share thoughts and birthday wishes on.
So this is the first time I've piped frosting. And even though my little flowers look droopy, it was a fun experience and I was so happy to have made the cake myself! This is me overcoming hurdles and trying new things... Watch out!
The cupcakes turned out way cute! Thanks to my friend Mindy and my mom! They did a fabulous job! The bubblegum was to represent the air balloon theme as well. Fun, bright and colorful if I do say so myself.
We had fun taking pictures of everyone in our photo booth!
Nate even made a video of her first year that played in the background. Thanks everyone for coming and for all those that have enjoyed our little love bug from day 1.
Like Mother, like daughter. ]
Good times added to a good life!
