Happy 1st Birthday Emery!!

We had Emery's 1st Birthday Party tonight at our house. We had a great turn-0ut and lots of fun. Thanks to those who were able to make it and for all of Emery's toys.

Here is a picture of the dining room that Ivan and I decorated. It turned out really cute.


Emery got her first official Utah Cheer leading dress. We can't wait to put it on her next season so she can cheer on the Ute's with Ivan.


Emery was so cute when we were singing Happy Birthday to her. She loved the attention! Notice her cousin Jayden in the background trying to blow the candle out for her.
I got booed for undressing her for the smash cake portion of the party. Ooh well, I'm not great at removing stains from clothes - I'm much better at thinking ahead on how to prevent them.
Emery's cute smash cake. My friend Michelle's Mom made it for her - it was the cutest little panda bear .

As expected (and I was relieved) Emery didn't really like to get dirty with her smash cake. She didn't really eat any of it and cried when she couldn't get the frosting off of her hands. Ooh, well, the cake was adorable (even though I forgot to get a picture of it before I gave it to her).
Below is a picture of the toys after everyone left. This child is SPOILED!! I'm scared to see what Christmas will bring in just a few short weeks. Note - we don't need anymore toys, we just need a storage unit for toys!
And, I bought this adorable tiara for Emery's birthday, and of course, I forgot to even put it on her. This is Emery modeling the tiara at the end of the night in her jammies.
This picture is sick and wrong in so many ways - but still cute. Emery and her cousin Jayden french-kissing!! I know Emery will hate me when she gets older for posting this picture for everyone to see, but isn't that what parents get to do?
