Birthday Girl!

Look who turned ONE!!  We celebrated with family at our house and had tons of fun.  She is one happy and spoiled little girl.  Thanks to our family for making her feel extra special!



I made one cake to smash, one cake for everyone to enjoy, and Madelyn made chocolate whoopie pies in her easy bake oven.  No shortage of sweets here!



Wrapping paper is the best present of all

I LOVE CAKE!!
