Our little niece Ellie turned 1 and the party was at our house. The theme was Minnie Mouse and the theme was very evident everywhere you looked! I'll let the pictures help tell the story.
Leanna made this adorable photo banner with a picture of each month of Ellie's life.
Derrick's Mom was a cake machine and made a total of four different kinds of cakes including 56 cake pops and 20 something cupcakes.
I thought this was so cute and so smart! it looks like a chalk board but it's just black foam board and neon sharpies. It looked adorable!
Ellie made it after her morning nap and was in high spirits the whole time! Derrick's mom made this adorable tu-tu and a friend of mine made her cute Minnie Mouse ONE-sie.
If you're judging by her presents this is one loved little girl!
Derrick and I got her some cloth alphabet letters for the refrigerator and then we made her latch board to play with. I just got a pre-cut and sanded plaque at Michaels and stained it and then we attached all these latches and hooks from the hardware aisle at home depot.
She seemed to think it was pretty cool.
After presents it was smash cake time. Derrick's mom made this adorable smash cake and Ellie had no problem digging right in!
We can't believe this little girl is already One!! Leanna, Kevin, and Ellie moved to Florida 3 days after the party. Kevin got offered a youth ministry job at a great church! We're so excited for this next adventure and opportunity for them but sad to be so much farther away. Looks like we'll be planning trips to Florida every few months as we keep striving for favorite aunt and uncle status!
Great pics!! Such a fun day.....thanks so much for hosting!
