Birthday Blogging - part 3

The party! We waited until Sunday (March 20th) for the party because then we could celebrate the arrival of spring as well :) A full sheet cake, and cupcakes as back up (nothing worse then running out of cake!!) The cupcake with the umbrella was the birthday girl piece.


the birthday outfit. Maybe not classy, but fun. The onsie was borrowed from her friend Olivia (who is 4-5 months older), and the skirt was made by grandma. The white satiny material used for the skirt is from the same fabric that mom made my wedding dress with.

Norrie napped in the truck right up until party time, when Tim brought her in. She had just a few minutes to wake up before we kicked off the party with the birthday song. I wasn't sure if she would smile or cry (nearly 80 people singing Happy Birthday could be a little intimidating for a one year old!) She didn't seem sure at first how to react either, but then put on a great smile and a little laughter.









Here's your cake....


Yummy!
