I can’t believe Anna Kate is already one!  She has been an awesome trooper this year and couldn’t have been a better baby.  What a SWEET SWEET blessing!

Enjoy the fancy!  Next year is going to be simple simple.  I promise! 

Thanks for all the great ideas, E!

 

 

I loved picking out some of my favorite pictures from this year for the mantle!

 

Thank you Poppa and Rara for the beautiful flowers & lollipop cookies!!!

Since my canvas artists (Michele & Keri) are out of state and country, Aunt Sharon decorated the door with one of Anna Kate’s first birthday pictures.  It turned out so cute!

Mommy and Daddy with the party star!

You guys know I love pictures, so everyone was grabbing my camera and snapping shots all day (I thought that was super cool).  We had over 500 pics by the end of the day and LOVED them all, so thanks to everyone who took fun pics like this one!

Attempt at a family photo – lol!  Go Noelle, you can smile, almost there…

"Hi Landon!"

Thanks for all you guys’ help with the party!  You know what you did!  🙂

Here’s a picture of most of the kiddos at the party!

We had a 1st year music & video mix playing, and Noelle had a ball dancing with her friends and showing them our pictures on the TV.

Cake time!!!

 

The girls love each other so much!  It’s so cute to watch them interact.

I love Anna Kate’s face in this picture!

 

Clap for Sadie and "Jumpy jumpy" for present time!

Fun with Emme!

Emme and I were saying "Ice" together over and over.  She’s so fun!
