Preslee's 1st Birthday Party

Preslee's 1st birthday party was on Saturday, December 3rd. It was ALOT of fun. Preslee and I left home and went and picked up balloons, her cake, and then stopped and got a drink and went over to Marisa's Dad's. We got there early to set up and clean up. Her Dad had already cleaned, thank you Jim!

We got everything set up! Letters on her Happy Birthday banner, balloons tied up, table cloth on, duckies set out, plates/napkins/plastic wear set out, highchair set up, presents situated... Then we waited for the party!  Everything seemed and was so perfect for her birthday. She had a great time playing and walking and everyone made it. Dana got there to take pictures and we can't wait to see the pictures from the party! Once I get them I will upload some pictures to show you the fun that we had!

Her cake was amazing. 3 tiered with black, pink, and silver. Top was a cupcake (for her) and the rest was just YUMMY! It had her named spelled out on it on the 2nd tier. So cute! We had pizza and pop for everyone!

She got lots of gifts and lots of clothes (which we needed since she pretty much skipped the 12 month size). It took me a day to get everything organized, situated, and then I had the dreadful time of going through all her smaller clothes and packing them away! Yes, I cried like a baby as I packed away some of her smaller things. I cried for over an hour as I sorted her closet to make more room. It was just emotional that my little baby was now 1 and that I needed to "get rid of" some of her things. I didn't get rid of the PRECIOUS stuff and the FIRST TIME things or HOLIDAY outfits just 'some' stuff.

But now we have a happy, healthy, vibrant one year old now fulling walking around the house. It's so cute to see my little independent girl. She likes to walk, completely feed herself, and do many things on her own. Makes this momma sad but happy at the same time.

Once I get the pictures I will upload them... But for now PRESLEE'S PARTY WAS GREAT AND I COULDN'T HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER 1ST BIRTHDAY PARTY!
