We celebrated Avery Reese's 1st birthday party on Saturday; it turned out amazing! We had plenty of food, the cupcakes were perfect, Avery Reese was happy and looked too cute in her birthday outfit, and we had plenty of friends and family to celebrate with.
After a couple of presents, she finally got the idea behind "unwrapping". Her fellow party goers (Kennedi, Katilyn, and Zach) also enjoyed her gifts. Quickly after opening gifts we stripped the birthday girl down to her diaper for the big finale......smashing the cake! (On Tuesday we had a practice run with the smash cake during her one year photo session, so I was not worried about this portion of the party). She dug right in to the cake, icing on both hands, up her arms, in her hair, everywhere, but her mouth. Apparently my child is not a huge fan of icing, she shivered when she received a small taste. Avery Reese preferred to throw her cake and share it with others. She eventually dug deep enough into the icing and discovered cake; she enjoyed that. Overall, I could not have asked for a better party or birthday girl.
I still can't believe my baby girl is already one! Brad and I were reminiscing about our car ride home from the hospital with her.....we were scared to death. I can't say we have changed that much today. Avery Reese is amazing and we thank God for her everyday. Happy Birthday!
