Life minus Love equals zero” – Rick Warren

I began the journey of motherhood a little over one year ago. The night Steve and I left for the hospital to be induced, he asked me what I was most excited about. “I am ready to love her”, I replied. It was and always has been that simple…

This past Saturday almost fifty of our closest family and friends gathered in our small 1800 square foot townhouse to celebrate Addisyn’s one year birthday. And, although the craziness of decorating, cooking, cleaning, and preparing for the party consumed me from 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, the reality of all the love that surrounds my little girl became evident as I tucked her into bed after the last guest left. I touched her heart, kissed her forehead and felt the well of tears building. For an hour and a half we celebrated her first birthday and it was absolutely perfect, but to know that all those guests came because they love my little girl was more special than all the detailed decorations and yummy party food. The love in our home was so much bigger than any party I could ever throw for her.

Here are some of the details of the party…of course I covered everything EXCEPT for asking someone else to take pics…so for my daughters 1st birthday party, I have pics of the details before and her the next day, but not much in between. :-(

*this is the banner I was working on all week. The flags are made of scrapbook paper and letters are as well. I found stencils on the internet that I traced right off my computer. Tissue paper flowers are on each side of the banner.

Every part of Addisyn’s sweet shop was covered with something that had to do with love or pink and red
Cupcakes were decorated by a friend from church. Thank you, Bobby Jo!
One of the candle bowls was entirely too big for the Pixy sticks it held. So I filled the gap by adding heart garland throughout the vase.
All the guest signed a frame and wrote something special about Addisyn. I plan to hang it in her room with a One Year Pic in the center.
She was cute as can be and even shared some with momma..Wish I had that pic :-(
She loves her new princess mobile :-)

    Awwe! You got some cute pics, even if they are few! I was watching you click away with her birthday candle cupcake when she was first digging in… did they not turn out well? She is so precious and so loved. It is so fun watching her grow!
