Katelyn is a year old...we made it!  We celebrated her birthday on Saturday with friends and family at our home.  Here are some photos from the day.  First, here are the simple decorations I chose.  I didn't want too much pink, and I don't like themes.  I used purple and pink streamers and made tissue paper poofs.

Do you know how difficult it is to find a girl's 1st birthday balloon without "princess" on it??...very. |

| This is the entry of our house.  There were also purple poofs in the kitchen. | 
We are blessed with many wonderful family and friends who showered Katelyn with gifts.

| She now has her own rocking chair! |

| Katelyn gave her 1st baby doll kisses. | 
We ate BBQ pork sandwiches, roasted potatoes, lovely pasta salads that family brought, and butterfly cupcakes.  I was inspired by the book 
Hello Cupcake.  It has great ideas and simple step by step instructions.

| Why is everyone looking at me?? | 
Here is a video of everyone singing to Katelyn.  She was mostly frightened by the experience...apparently we are a scary group.
We are so thankful that so many people could make it to celebrate with us.  It was a great day!
 
Those cupcakes are amazing! My sister texted me a picture... so I had a sneak peak, but WOW!!! :) Love her dress- I'm still bummed I didn't pick that one up on clearance for Ellie ;) Ha! Hard to believe the year has flown by! She's a cutie :)
