Andie's First Birthday Party

On November 16 we had owl/woodland themed birthday party to celebrate Andie's first birthday!

The invitation I designed in PowerPoint:)




Girly/woodsy wreath I made for the front door:)



The welcome table - Front and back of the invitation framed, and a little poem asking our guests to sign an owl book for our little miss:)






Month-by-month picture line that hung above the dessert buffet


We had a caramel apple bar with lots of fun toppings!



.....and a dessert bar with coconut macaroons, acorn donut holes, snicker doodles, cake batter bark, owl cake pops, and raspberry-filled cupcakes


Andie's smash cake - Justin piped the owl:)


Funny little story about these cupcakes....I took them out of the oven, then took a call from my hip surgeon. Justin was changing Andie's diaper and when we came back into the kitchen Caden had eaten FOUR cupcakes under the kitchen table!


My good friend Leah made these ADORABLE owl cake pops!

She cried, so we brought her inside where she ate some icing with Dad:)


The birthday girl took a nap after everyone left and woke up to open presents:)

We are so grateful for all of the friends and family that came to celebrate our little lady turning ONE!!!
