Fiona’s First Birthday Party

Seems in the rush around and shuffle of creativity and Spring projects, I forgot to post a Fiona’s First Birthday party post. Which is to say, you still haven’t seen the pictures of her cupcake face yet. I did show you the party decorations.

My paper feathers are still hanging around. See the whole post here.

And the fabulous gold circle patterned balloons that my son and I made.

That post is here.

And I published a post on the flower arrangements.

I made pulled pork and my special coleslaw and good old Aunt Emma’s chocolate cake cupcakes that morning.

Eamon used Lucky Charm marshmallow shapes and sprinkles to decorate them.

Family came including Fiona’s cousin Emma whose only several months younger.

We are all thrilled to know they have each other to play with as they grow up.

And soon it was time for the cupcakes.

This has to be my favorite shot.

And our good friends John and Gayle played a rousing game of keep up the balloon with Eamon.

Fiona got new toys and it was a really great day for everyone.

A month has gone by since the party and it seems so long ago. Happily, I’ll always have the pictures and the memories. Celebrations are an excuse to create memories and well worth all the efforts.
