Anna's First Birthday Party

On April 7 we celebrated Anna's first birthday with a Very Hungry Caterpillar Party. It was so much fun! Anna looked adorable and everything came together just perfectly.
Our Hungry Caterpillar balloons.
Anna's Hungry Caterpillar - one picture from each month of her first year.Butterfly party favors.The cake! I was thrilled with how it all turned out. I experimented with something new this year (sugar sheets) and they worked wonderfully for her cake.
Anna is cruising now with walking. This picture was bright, but too cute not to include!
The food - our menu came from the book. Each food item had it's own little tag with the text about it from the story written on it. We did fruit, sandwiches complete with salami and swiss cheese, pickles, pasta salad, veggies, and chips.My adorable birthday girl! A big thanks to my great friend Andrea for lending us the adorable outfit! It was perfect!Happy Birthday to you!Anna smash cake.Sharing with Great Grandpa WallLovely...frosting around the back of our neck...Isn't this fun!?!I'm a mess......and so tired......please clean me up!Anna took crazy hair to a new level when I tried to get all the chocolate out. It was off to the tub for a good shampoo!Anna really liked tearing the paper on her presents and playing with her cards and envelopes.She got a cute Little People Doll House from Grandma and Grandpa Schwartzhoff.Brady thought 'hiding' in the box was pretty fun.Anna was telling Great Grandma Wall all about her gifts. Those envelopes were pretty sweet!Anna also got a neat ride on toy from Grandma and Grandpa Johnson.It was a great day spent with friends and family. Happy 1st Birthday, Anna!
