Callie's 1st Birthday Party!!!

Pink Pumpkins!!!

This was the theme for Callie's 1st birthday party!  Being an October baby GIRL, it seemed fitting!  Mommy had so much fun planning for this party, as this was my first girly party to throw!  We had this party in Joplin, at Nana & Papa's house, just with our family.  It was absolutely perfect!  AND we got to celebrate on her actual birthday, October 12!!  So here are some pictures that a great friend took to capture some sweet moments!  Enjoy!

First up, the decorations....
The Entryway Table

S'more favors

Framed Invitation




The Food Table



And the Fireplace

 Painted Pumpkins



The first thing we did as family members arrived, was take pictures, while Callie was still happy!  We knew she'd be exhausted by the end of the party!  Just a few of my favorites...

PS - I made her bow!!



Elise, Callie, & Lyla
Cousins!!



Next up, we ate Broccoli Cheese Soup (and some other goodies) for lunch.  After this, time for the presents!!  This was a little chaotic because big brother wanted to help, and Callie just wanted to play with the first toys she opened...and not open the rest.  So basically it turned out as Caeden opening most of the presents, and Callie playing with them... 
All ready!!



With her new baby...


By this time, Callie was getting pretty tired, and I think the present-opening was pretty wearing on her!  So, we had the paci and were trying to prevent a meltdown!!  But lastly, we had to eat the birthday cake!

Smash Cake

Pumpkin birthday cake for everyone else!
(that mommy made!)


Did not even attempt to blow out the candle!





Our sweet girl is one year old!  The last few weeks I have thought about this over & over.  It's so hard to believe!  And it's just amazing how babies change in a year!  We have cherished every day this past year with her, and will continue to thank God for every day that he gives us with her!

Happy 1st Birthday Callie!!
