I love to throw a good party... you know, with a theme and lot's of details. Beautiful decor and really really good food. For a long time I felt like I needed a reason to do this for others, for bridal or wedding showers, for work or church events. I felt like I needed to justify all the effort, not just for myself or my little family. However in the most recent years, not having a specific church or work family to party plan for and I also realized that if I can't put that effort into celebrating my own little family, I really shouldn't be doing it for others...
So we pulled out all the stops to celebrate our Baby Girl's 1st Birthday and dedication ceremony.
Scrumptious dessert table...all sorts of decor was borrowed from bestie JT of course (keeps the costs down) and the heirloom quilt was dear hubby's grandma's - perfect for the pink baby girl party. |
