Layla's First Birthday-VA party

Our sweet girl had lots of help celebrating her first birthday! With her actual birthday being so close to Christmas, and us being in the middle of moving out of our house, we knew a big birthday bash at our house just wasn't going to happen. The blessing about a Christmas birthday, is that there's always plenty of family in town to celebrate with! We threw her a mini party at my mom's house in VA a few days before Christmas. It was pink and girly, and all about cupcakes!

 Love this little cupcake!

 I know my grandparents were thrilled to be a part of her 1st birthday. 

 She got so many sweet gifts, and finally has some girl toys to play with!

 The hit of the night was this "Fur real" dog that she got. She LOVES dogs, and her reaction was priceless! So sad that we didn't get it on video. 

Eli thought it was for him...but Layla set him straight.

 Yum!

 Waiting patiently for her cake.

 It took her no.time.at.all to devour an entire cupcake. She needed no instruction!

 No explanation needed. She's definitely got a sweet tooth!

Her first year in pictures. Oh how we've loved watching her grow!

Thanks, Mimi, for letting us party at your house!
