Party Time!

Since Emmelyn was turning 1 and having her first ever birthday party, we knew it was going to have to be a party to remember. Given that her birthday is right after Christmas, I decided to go with the Winter ONEderland theme. Snowflake decorations left over from the holidays are super cheap and when will we ever get to use the ONEderland theme again, right?

I found this super cool invite design on Etsy and was able to order the invites free using some free photo credits I had.



Here's a picture of Em enjoying one of her presents from us, her new super cool big girl chair.



This is Em's birthday cake for the adults attending the party.



Here's the cupcakes I made for the kiddies attending.



Here's Em pouting a little before blowing out her candle. I tried to put a party hat on her and she was having none of it.



Here's Em obviously enjoying her very own little birthday cake that I made for her.



Here's the aftermath after we took the cake from Em. She probably would have kept on eating it!



Em spent some time hanging out with her Pap and Gram D'Angelo during her party.

Here's Em showing off her cool cupcake shirt with her 1 birthday candle. Too bad we didn't get a better picture of the shirt.

Here's Em hanging out with Aunt Becky who came all othe way from Washington, DC to attend Em's birthday party and spend the whole weekend with her.

Here's Daddy living it up during the party clean-up.

All in all, the party was great. We had a house full of friends, family and adults and had a fun time catching up with everyone that we haven't seen in awhile. We hope we can have another fun party soon!
