Emerson Turns ONE!
Hello! Yes, it's me! I'm actually posting something! And yes, it's been months...too many months but hey, better late than never right? I figured it doesn't need to be all or nothing and as inconsistent as it is, I refuse to give up the blog! So, if I have something to share and if I can find the time, you will see a post! Look at it as a little surprise in your day!
So while we're on the subject of surprises and celebrations, I thought I would share a very special first birthday party with you. My sweet little granddaughter Emerson turned one in May and her very creative mommy planned a party to remember! You know I absolutely love parties and this one was as cute as they get! It was a celebration fit for a little princess with pretty flowers, pink and gold accents, girly party food and a chandelier....because every birthday girl needs her own chandelier! I'm sharing some of my favorite photos from the day. Happy Friday!
Pretty tables topped with Gold Chevron, a sprinkle of Metallic Confetti and Pink Peonies.
Satin Ribbon in shades of Pink and Gold Glitter tied loosely around Emerson's birthday chair.
Wooden letters O N E and a petite chandelier to decorate the birthday table.
Pink Lemonade and Strawberry flavored water station.
Gold Stripe and Pink Polka Dot straws.
The food was designed around small bites. The Yogurt Bar was my personal favorite.
Mini Smoothie Shots topped with Raspberries.
Heart shaped Peanut Butter & Jelly/Marshmallow Sandwiches ~ A birthday girl favorite.
A Pink and Gold Birthday Cake by Kyrsten's Sweet Designs ~ Perfection!
Of course Emerson had her very own cake!
This very serious Birthday Girl was rather cautious with her cake. If you could only see her view! There was quite a crowd watching her (should have captured that pic!).
Pink Chevron and Gold Goody Bags ~ Filled with candy of course.
A truly special day for a happy little birthday girl!
What a wonderful time we all had! It was so much fun to watch the wonder in Emerson's eyes as we ooohhhed and ahhhhed over her first birthday celebration. This is a great life and I'm happy to be living it! And I am especially grateful to have the opportunity to be a part of these fun times! I hope you are all having a beautiful summer and enjoying the special times that are happening now with your family and friends! Have a wonderful weekend!
