Emily & Mr. Ears

In honor of Emily's first birthday, I thought it would be fun to take a look back at the past twelve months and see just how much our little girl has grown.

Enjoy!


























My apologies for not having Mr. Ears in the 8 month photo. In all the madness of the summer, he didn't make that particular trip to Grammy's. :-)

Emily's First Birthday

It's hard to believe, but our little girl celebrated her first birthday last Saturday! The time certainly has gone quickly, but we've had so much fun and it's hard to remember a time when Emily wasn't part of our lives.

In honor of the big day we traveled back to Indiana to celebrate the big day with family. It was so nice to have so many people join us and to see the love they all have for our little girl. We are truly blessed to be surrounded by so many who genuinely love us and both of our girls. Thank you to all who made this day so much fun!

Below are a few pictures from Emily's Ladybug party! Be sure to check out the slide show on the right hand side for even more! Enjoy!


Fresh from a nap, the birthday girl joins the party!


The cake. It took some work to get the colors right, but I was very happy with how it turned out.


Pure sugar...Emily enjoys her first bite of her birthday cupcake!


Oh yeah, she's a BIG fan of this birthday thing!
