Jenna's 1st Birthday!!!

Ok, there are a ton of pics. But how could I not show you them all??? And JM took his camera and has some really cute ones, but I, of course, am ready to blog mine (from my camera) and maybe he'll blog some of his fancy ones later. :)

We went to Fayetteville for Jenna's first birthday and ate at the Olive Garden. We really had fun and we hope everyone else did too! It was so nice to be able to spend time with everyone and like always the weekend just went by way too fast.

Anyway, I think this is the only group shot we got of the 3 of us. Jenna and her Nana.

Isn't her first birthday outfit just as cute as can be too? It is also reversible and the other side has her initials on it, so she can wear it again!



I love her cake!

Jenna's smash cake

At first, she just stuck one little finger in (like she kind of does with everything) but after a few taste tests, she decided just to go for it all. It was so cute to watch!



And some of the petit fours - these were delicious!





This is a goofy pic, but it's the best one I got. I'm so glad that Shannon and Melissa came! Shannon got Jenna an adorable outfit and Melissa painted a really neat frame and wastebasket!





And my mom got Jenna this banner from Bibs & Cribs. It is so cute and I can't wait to put it up every year!





Jenna with all of her stash except for Melissa, Shannon and Brian's gift. She got some really fun toys and I can't wait for her to play with them. I think I might be a bit more excited about the new toys than she is!




And JM's sister got him a birthday cake since his birthday is over Thanksgiving and we won't be seeing them. Another yummy Rick's cake over the weekend!


We really had a great time and we have tons and tons of pics to prove it!

Looks like Jenna had a great 1st Bday. You will love the ball popper. Landon still loves his but we have lost all of hte balls. I think our dog ran off with all of them!! Her outfit was adorable! Happy 1st Bday Jenna!!

What a cute dress and banner! And the cakes...how beautiful (both Jenna's and JM's)!

To echo Ashley...Jenna will LOVE the ball popper. Although, *you* are going to do most of the work until the batteries wear down some...the balls do "pop" out in every direction. But even Josiah, at 2, still enjoys playing with it.

What a lovely weekend. I'm so glad that you were able to spend such a special occasion with close friends and family.

We have the ball popper too! Even our BIG kids still love that thing! lol Samuel is 17 months now and he puts the balls in himself.. so not long to wait. :)

Jenna is a gorgeous girl, and I cannot believe she's already a year old. Welcome to the Mom of a Toddler Club!
