Our girl turned 1 on Friday. She woke up bright and early as usual and we greeted her with a giant happy birthday and singing. First thing in the morning Taylor made her a "car" with a box from Costco. He even cut out a little door and door handle, made it nice and cushy and in went her and "Sweetie" (her little baby). She loved every second of it and went on several rides throughout the day. After a morning nap we went to lunch at Corner Bakery. Our sandwiches were not very 1 year old friendly, but she sure enjoyed some chocolate cake. We walked around the mall for a bit and even ran into Aunt Jodie and Sage's Grandma Jeanne. Later in the evening the Averyts came over to celebrate with us. They love our little girl so we knew we had to include them in her big day. We ate dinner, sang happy birthday and watched her demolish her cupcake. Saturday was her big owl birthday party with cousins and grandparents. It was a lot of fun. Sage is so blessed with such wonderful friends and family that love her. We ate yummy food that her Great Grandma Jackie and Grandma Jeanne helped. We had homemade mac and cheese, pasta with chicken, salad, bread sticks, relishes, and fruit-ka-bobs. The Petersons were able to join us too so Sage was able to see her boyfriend, Cole. Sage was able to see all almost all the special people in her life. (We missed a few people due to sickness and due to living out of state.) Taylor and I worked really hard to make it an extra special party for her. I love detail and all the little extra things, but what made her party so special was that Sage was happy and had a good time with lots of loved ones. It was perfect.
Taylor and I got her this big baby doll that matches her little baby doll. She would not put it down. Notice she has it in almost every picture from this point of the party on. |
