Mary Clark's 1st Birthday Party

Well, I thought I was being smart by postponing Mary Clark's party by one week. I had been out of town the weekend prior to her real birthday and thought having an extra weekend would be helpful. I also thought, "One more week to warm up". Wrong. It was gorgeous the weekend of her birthday and gorgeous this weekend.. the weekend of March 5th.. not so much.
Below is what we woke up to! We realized by about Thursday that there was no hope so we started cleaning out our rather large basement (meaning LOTS of junk) so we could host about 40 adults and toddlers/babies!

Her balloons were blown to you know where and back.

This was them before :)

Our gorgeous entrance to the party.. gotta love grey cinder block.

I had a little play area for the small babies. And a mini jump house for the kids.. pictured later!

And tables for the adults..

Our favors were potted pansies...

Our food table with yummy Chappy's! Love the garage door backdrop.

Aunt Rebecca's banner was the centerpiece.

Our cake table

I loved the tulips..

And her smash cake..

Here she is!!!

On the go with her baby stroller.

Caity, her baby, is having a rough time.

"Juice anyone?"

"I would like a sandwich, or maybe a chicken finger"

Here I am helping Mommy shop for some new spring pajamas..
I refused to sit in the true baby seat.. I said hello to everyone we passed!


The night of my actual birthday we went to Riverchase with Nana and Pee Pie for dinner.. here I am walking with Pee Pie...

Here I come!

Pee Pie thinks I am hilarious...

Mommy and Nana always wanting a picture with me...

Daddy being silly as usual..

I love my Nana.

I am talking up a storm these days, "Uh oh" is still my favorite phrase.

Saying hi to our server..

Before we went out to dinner; I am currently boycotting bows.. Mommy gets me to wear them for about 3 seconds and then I pull it out and try to eat it. :)

Here I am after lunch at Edgars on my birthday, we ran into my Aunt Lauren!

Mommy, Daddy and me

Twins.

My cupcake, a practice for my party.. not really interested in sweets at this point.

"Mom, another picture!?"

Love my Ritz crackers.

The family again.

MRS. DEBBIE!!! One of my favorite people in the entire world.. she met Mommy with me right before lunch.

Here is my front door the morning of my big day!

I wore my party play outfit to Debbie's that morning.

See my pretty banner, Aunt Rebecca gave this to me! Mommy and Daddy gave me my Anywhere Chair.

Valentine's Day... Mommy came home to this! Pretty hydrangeas from Daddy and her birthday present finally arrived from NOVEMBER!!

I got this cute play outfit for when I start school in June! (not sure why the pic is not vertical?)

This is what I gave Mommy, Mrs. Debbie helped me make it.

Here I am on my way to Mrs. Debbie's that morning.. not sure if you can tell, but my pants have little hearts on them.. a gift from Mrs. Debbie!

Here Daddy and I are the day of the Mercedes Marathon, He got me all dressed up to go see Mommy run with her company's relay team

And here I am after one of Mommy's practice runs, I of course had to wear my running suit (courtesy of Nana) while I rode in the Bob..

My Birthday Party will be the next post.. hopefully Mommy will have it by the end of the week!
