1st Birthday Party!

We had a great time back in Great Falls for Avery's first birthday. Lots of family and friends showed up to celebrate. I'm not sure if the birthday girl knew what was going on, but she loved every minute of it. She shoved a cupcake in her face and helped open up her presents. She got such wonderful gifts! We have so many wonderful family and friends.

The cake!
I love her grin in this one. Click on it to enlarge the photo.

She liked the wrapping paper.
She wasn't sure about the cupcake at first. I don't think she's used to having something this big just plopped down in front of her. I don't have an after picture but it ended up all over her face.
She almost looks a little ticked off here doesn't she :) This is when everyone was singing happy birthday and she was like, "why are all these crazy people looking at me and singing!?"
Rosanne, Kaylie and Jill with Jill's boy's Calen and Griffen. Rosanne's girls were running around somewhere. I hadn't met Calen yet so it was pretty special that Jill showed up.

It was so good to see you, Jeff and Avery Sunday! I still can't believe it has been a year, she is such a sweetie! We had a great time and we look foward to seeing you at Ryley's b-day bash in a few weeks! And your Mom's cake was awesome, she did a wonderful job.

It was a great party and a wonderful weekend!

I can't believe a whole year has gone by since Avery was born.
She is such a joy.
We love her dearly.
