Happy Birthday, Emma!

Emma turned 1 on July 19th! This year just flew by! To celebrate Miss E's birthday we had a combined party with our friends, The Noorda's, whose daughter Kennedy is 3 days older than Emma.

Here we are opening Emma's first birthday present ever! Its from Grandma, of course!...a cell phone!...its one of her favorites now!

These are the cakes Emily Noorda made for the little girls. They each got their own!
Here is the big cake that the rest of us shared. Isn't it just beautiful!?!
Emma wasn't a fan of the party hats...
...especially not in this picture either.
Here are the birthday girls right before getting their cakes.
Okay, so this is the cake before and after Emma dug into it. She licked frosting from her fingers a few times and that was about it. She is very dainty and clean I guess.
Ben helped Emma open her gifts...someday she will appreciate the gifts more than the wrapping and packaging.
Emma loves turtles.

Our thanks goes out to our friends who came to her party. We appreciate all of your love and support. It was a great day!
