Store bought cakes for riley to smash into
a gazillion cupcakes so graciously made by katie for riley. They came out SO pretty and really completed her purple-y themed party. They tasted amazing as well...the pictures dont show it but the chocolate batter was even dyed purple!
Carrie and Brad, basically family, they are always supporting us :)
Sophie stopped to pose for the camera, how cute!
Lia is such a doll!
A few family members. My step brother Chase and his wife tami on the right and my brother Matt and his girlfriend tammy on the left.
Caitlin and Barry. My little sister, practicaly.
Hailee, Gregg and Laurie, great picture!
While we were singing to her to she did not know what we were up to...she just looked around at everyone very interested. Who are all these people looking at me and singing to me?
She did not like her cake one bit at first! i was giving her frosting and she would spit it out. Then her uncle ben gave her some cake from the middle with no frosting and she ended up likeing the whole thing!
What was left of the pretty cake
My brother and his girlfriend with riley after she finished enjoying her cake. priceless picture!
and this teddy bear that was almost as big as her!
This purse. She knew exactly what to do with it...well i dont put purses around my neck, but she knew you were supposed to wear/hold it somehow!
And this chair from josh's parents. The look on her face says it all. She would get distracted by something and get off the chair, but not long after she would remember, and scramble back over all the wrapping paper and happily sit in it some more :)
My brother said he wanted to get her the coolest thing in the toy store-he is such a pround uncle-and he sure did! He got her this toy horse, that you have to jump up and down on and spin the thing on top to make stuff happen on the t.v. like the alphabet or numbers, etc. very fun!
We had such a wonderful day thanks to all our family and close friends who were so willing to put a few hours aside for Riley and make her first birthday really special. THANKS!
These are the miller's. I run with kristi and babysit Emerson

I love 1st bdays! My oldest was the greatest! She was literally covered in choco cake and frosting! Glad you had fun, as you know, the time doesn't last long and they grow way to fast! My oldest is 4 next month, and I can't believe it!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun- good job with the party! Great memories and Riley will love looking at the pictures to see who was at her first birthday party!
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a fun day, I am so sorry we did not make it, I did not realise that Kipper had already made plans for that day at that time. Stinker!
ReplyDeleteShe is so so so beautiful and she is growing up so fast. Looks like a total hit and a total blast and girl, YOU LOOK AMAZING by the way!
Did you cute your hair? It is cute in the picture of the 3 of you. That is so fun to have family over to celebrate the kids birthday's.
