A Happy Birthday Party

Last Saturday we had a little Birthday Party for Elsie's 1st Birthday. All but one Auntie and Uncle and one Grandpa came to celebrate the special day~ a full house!
We had a light lunch of ham and turkey sandwiches, chips and a veggie platter...we even used the punch bowl for apple cider with orange slices...very yummy...
Opening all the gifts...at first Elsie was not too sure about ripping the paper...but by the end she was starting to understand and enjoy herself...



At one point she would not quit smiling at everyone...she was wrinkling up her little nose so silly-like! I think she knew she was the center of attention!

She got lots of fun little gifts... some clothes, pajamas, soft blocks, a little red trike, puzzle, care bear, mittens...and a few other things...she is one lucky little girl!

Cupcake Time! We made lovely (and very gooey) frosting for the cupcakes...complete with big dot sprinkles.


Blowing out the candle...she tried so hard to blow it out...but in the end mommy had to help and blow it out for her! She loves candles!
Elsie wasted no time in easing the cupcake! She had never had so much sugar before...and it will be quite some time before she does again!



Elsie had a very nice Birthday Celebration...she one very loved little girl for sure...

You and Jon had a nice party for Elsie's first birthday. It was fun watching her - she can be such a little show off, for sure! Well, for her first time having all that sugary goodness (the frosting!), she certainly seemed to enjoy it - unfortunately, they seem to catch on to those types of things pretty quickly don't they (!!) --- good thing she loves all her fruits & veggies, too!
