Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Zoey!!! I can't believe that we have a one-year-old! I have been feeling a little emotional about her turning one, I really can not believe how fast this year has flown by!

Today was a very nice day. We spent the day getting ready for her birthday party and then around 4:00 had our families over for her birthday party. It was a very small party -only 12 people including Zoey, but that was perfect! It wasn't too overwhelming or stressful, so I was really able to enjoy the day, and I think Zoey definitely did too. She had her first taste of cake and ice cream, and was really interested in opening her presents. It was so fun!

Here are some pics:






Her simple, Betty Crocker from-the-box, Birthday Cake. I'm not very creative when it comes to baking, but it definitely tasted good! :)

Waiting to see what this birthday cake thing is all about...



She wasn't too sure about the cake at first....But after some encouragement, she dug right in!




Presents!



Zoey received lots of nice presents, and really seemed to enjoy opening them. It was a big change from Christmas when she couldn't really open things and didn't seem all that interested in what she was getting. She was very excited about her new toys, but waited very patiently for Daddy to take them out of the box so that she could play with them.
