Anna's birthday party started out by greeting our guests. In attendance at the party were Fiona, Kieran, and Ewan Steers, our neighbors Alice and Tony, and Grandma and Grandpa Mudgett, and of course Mommy, Daddy, and Anna.
Anna was ready to greet her guests with her party hat on
We had tons of decorations
We started off by unfortunately having to move our tables from outside into the living room as it started to rain. Then we had a feast! We had bbq chicken taco salad for the adults and tacos for the kids. Anna got her favorite shredded cheese and re-fried beans. Next, we had some time to chat and play
after which Anna opened some of her gifts.

She received all kinds of great gifts including a handmade quilt from Grandma Mudgett, a tea set, a glowing bouncy eyeball, her very own set of keys and cutlery, and a great toy. She also received several great outfits, a swim suit, sippy cup, CD and DVD. The neighbor down the street saw her decorations for her party and even brought her a card! And her friend from two doors down got her a book. What a great day!
Then it was followed by delicious strawberry short cake

And Finally we had to say goodbye. But, we didn't open all the gifts yet, there is no reason why the a birthday has to end just because the party is over, right?
I've been waiting for this post. I'm so glad that you (and Anna) had a good time. I can't believe that she is one! I love the baby doll. I haven't seen one of those up close for many years... We'll have to send her a football next year.
ReplyDeleteGreat party. Anna one year old. I am sad that we couldn't be there it looks like it was a great day. Nice job with the decorations and your home looks nice with all that furniture in your living room. Anna is very stylish in her pink outfit and hat. Love, Dad
ReplyDeleteShe is so sweet and getting bigger by the minute. Hard to believe that one year has gone by so quickly. Thanks for sharing the party with us. Wish we could have been there to celebrate with everyone. Love, Mom
