First Birthday Party - May 26, 2007



I had my suspicions that Abby would be a "party girl!" (Insert apples falling from trees comment here.) So on Saturday when she was a total sweetheart the whole day, even going so far as to perfectly time her naps, I really should not have been surprised!



We started our day off by finalizing last minute details and putting out decorations.








There were many prestigious guests to the big party. To mention just a few...


Grandma Kathy

Uncle Chewy

Auntie Jamie

And, of course, Millie.


And her good friend Loomis Hjemvick.



The party was SO fun! We had a great lunch! Featured menu items included several of Abby's notable favorites: cheese hot dogs, seven layer salad with EXTRA PEAS, and fresh fruit with EXTRA BLUEBERRIES!



And of course...CAKE!





There were lots of pretty presents to open! Abby was very clearly very spoiled!!


A BIG hit, was the BIG yellow doggie from Auntie Carrie & uncle Chad.

Other faves: Abby's hot new bikini & her very own swimming pool!

And a SUPER fun, SUPER LOUD lawnmower from the Schlichtmann family!

Abby & Evan & Emma got to spend some time playing outside.





And finally, we had decided to plant a tree in the yard to commemorate Abby's turning one. We can watch it (and HER) grow every year!
