Margaret’s first birthday party

What a great afternoon with so many great friends!  We celebrated our girl with a party at home, and boy did I have fun getting it together!  Flowers and glitter and ruffles and pink-love the girly things!  It was a great, great afternoon-I’ll let the amazing pictures (from Casey Edwards!) do the talking.

Turns out she did NOT like her smash cake!  She didn’t want her hands in it, and she didn’t even want to taste it!  I couldn’t believe it!Everyone was done with the smash cake playing, most especially the birthday girl,but give her some fruit, and she’s good!  She preferred her blueberries to her cake!  Goodness!  I thought she’d dig in!So thankful for her amazing godmother and godfather!Such a blessing, this growing family of ours!  Praise you, LORD!

So thankful for the beautiful day we had, for a while it was calling for really, really cold temps!, and for all our dear family and friends that came to celebrate our sweet one-year-old birthday girl!!!  A day we’ll always remember!

Margaret is ONE!!!!!

Happy, happy FIRST birthday to our best girl!  This year has flown by and we have loved, loved each day with this doll baby!  One, One, One, One, One, One, One, One, Margaret is One, One, One ONE!We gave her a cinnamon sugar bagel and she loved it!  I took it to put a candle in it, because we HAD to sing to her!, and she was not happy!Song over, candle blown out, and bagel back in hand.  Look at that face!Oooooh, can’t wait to celebrate this girl!

Christmas card pictures

Not always an easy task, but with daddy making all kind of funny faces behind the camera and Kenzie grabbing any leaves that Margaret was trying to eat, we got the shot!  Not only THE shot, but a handful of others that I love!  Note to self-always bring help when taking Christmas card pictures!  Love, love these!!And the one we chose!  I love these three so!

Sharks and a fish!

Our Megalodon, Hammerhead, and baby Goldfish!  Halloween was a rainy afternoon, so we put our costumes back on today and played out front-and took pictures!Most pictures of the one who can’t get away too fast!  Love her and her little goldfish self!
