Thank you everyone for celebrating our little B's first birthday!

The clown noses were a hit and I loved seeing everyone in them!

This is Bella's Great Grandpa, isn't he adorable!

Since there was no way of fitting 40 people in our house and it was way too cold to have a party outside I decided to have it in our church gym which turned out great. I don’t think Bella had any idea that we were all there for her but she loved the attention which is not unusual for the girl, she really loves attention!

Bella's party was circus themed and for the goodies I had clown noses, animal crackers, lollypops, and I made circus animal crayons. Putting this together was the funnest part for me, I am so a fan of apothicary jars.

My Aunt Julie is an amazing pastry chef and I had her make the cupcakes. She made white, german chocolate, and spice all topped with cream cheese frosting. They were deliscious!

To try and create the circus atmosphere we had a popcorn machine, a photo banner, and a pool full of litle plastic balls for the little kids to play in, (and the bigger ones seemed to enjoy it too). I had seen the idea of a tent on another blog and of course stole the idea, this was my favorite decoration!

Bella Cait turns ONE!

Bella Cait turned one on October 30^th. We celebrated her birthday on November 6^th and it was a blast! My older sister Kelli is amazing at throwing parties, she created the invtite, the banner and all the labels, Thanks Kelli!

I had made this tutu for Bella and wanted to take some pictures to hang up at her party. They didn't turn out the way I had hoped so instead they get to be admired on the blog.
