first birthday

Happy Birthday to my sweet Lillian!  The past year has been the best year of my life, for she has brought us more joy and happiness than we could ever have imagined.  And that calls for a celebration.

Her party would not have been complete without her own Lillian-sized cake, and a candle as big as she.

2 of Lillian's favorite things at once: grandma and cake.

That's my girl- getting her next bite of cake ready before the first one is even swallowed.  

And don't lose that tight grip when you've got something good.

The party was a huge success- pizza, cake, presents, and lots and lots of love.  This girl is our heart, our joy, our everything.
