Allie's 1st Birthday Party

Happy Birthday to our sweet Allie!

It's amazing that Allie has only been part of our family for just over a year! It's been amazing watching her grow but also seeing Jake with her and how she truly completes our family. She's the perfect final addition for our little foursome! She's the sweetest little baby girl and we just love, love, lover her so much! I'm so excited to watch her grow and to enjoy this special time with her. 

We were traveling home from Santa Fe on her actual birthday so we celebrated the next weekend with a little brunch and a special visit from Mimi for the party! I had thought about doing brunch for quite a while and with a little help from Pinterest everything came out just perfectly. 

The birthday girl had so much fun seeing so many people at the house. She loved being around the big almost 2 year old crew (Allie is the youngest of the second kids) and seeing friends play with her toys of course made them much more interesting.  

Yes, I'm sitting in the bucket! 

There were kiddos everywhere!

Don't worry Allie, you'll like this!

Poor thing was so tired she literally almost fell asleep in her cake!

Yum!

With help from Mimi, treats for our party-goers. A good morning CD and book from Allie-Cat!

After a well-deserved nap we opened presents. Allie of course loved the tissue paper and ribbons best. As always our friends were way to generous!

Someone loves his baby girl!

Thank you so much to all who came to Allie's party and special thank you to Mimi (how you managed to stay out of all the pictures is beyond me) for coming and for all the help. We're so lucky to have such a fabulous girl to celebrate!
