Annalise did not turn one, but she did have her very first ever birthday party last week :) Her theme was a Garden Party.
We had a morning party with a brunch. Here is Annalise getting a head start. Our brunch menu was Egg and Cheese Strata, Fruit Salad, Sweet Potato Biscuits, and Regular Biscuits. The
Sweet Potato Biscuits were a huge hit - a random internet find.

Here's the butterfly cupcake I copied from
Martha Stewart. I didn't get a picture of the craft we made - paper plate bees.
A whole flock of butterflies.
The grand moment!
The aftermath!

As a party favor our guest got to plant a flower to take home. I took cuttings from my pentas a couple of weeks ago and set them in water to start roots.
Rob and I gave Annalise this stroller, the baby came from Grandpa and Grandma - great combo (unplanned) and a big hit with Annalise!
Caleb gave her this set of farm animals - I told him he could pick out what he wanted to get her and before we even got to the store, this is what he decided on. I like shopping with someone who already has their mind made up!

Looks like a lot of fun. I love the theme and the cupcakes. When I get home, I'm gonna have to have that sweet potato recipe.
