We finished celebrating Livi's 1st birthday last weekend with family + friends. We fired up our friend's bbq pit and smoked some brisket, ribs + chicken...one of Livi's favorite, Texas barbecue that is! It was a big success, everyone else seemed to enjoy it too. Thanks, Zeke, for the awesome meat! I made the cake, as usual, in the shape of the only thing Livi seems attached to...our cat, Cosmo. Oh, and her favorite gift was also a small, stuffed black + white kitty; she hugs and squeezes it, it's so cute. My parents drove in all the way from Indiana too, loaded with toys we left behind in our last move, most notably the sand/water table...a BIG hit with the little people. It was really nice to see everyone; I would've probably taken some more pictures, of everyone, but on the other hand it was nice to sit back and visit. Livi, and Ava, had a great time; thanks again to those who celebrated with us, and thanks for all of the generous gifts. Ava started planning her birthday, in June, the minute Livi's was over. So far we are having a unicorn cake, bounce house with water, a swing set....the list grows everyday!

What a party! So sorry I missed it, looks like you all had a great time :)
And, as usual, I'm impressed with your party throwing talents (check out the decorations and the cat cake and little cupcakes!). Your girls will love to look back at these pictures and realized how awesome their mom treated them. Kind of like we do ;)
The cake and cupcakes are awesome! I think you've inspired me to try my hand at cake decorating for Ione's next birthday...I have 8 months to develop my talent. Looks like such a fun party. I love the sand and water table. I wish we lived closer so our girls could spend time together!
Happy Birthday, Livi! Great cake, Court! ;)
Totally bummed to have missed this. Danny said he had a really wonderful time.
