Birthday Girl!!! Lilly Rose is ONE! We celebrated on her actual Birthday, Sunday, December 23, with a Nutcracker Ballet Birthday Party. Let me just say, a party two days before Christmas is nuts! I knew it was going to be tough but I didn't want to slight the fact that no matter what was going on, it was in-fact the day Lilly Rose was born...so we partied. Unfortunately, there were a few mishaps but we won't focus on all those. Let's just say next year we'll take a trip to Disney or plan a special day instead of trying to have a party. :)
We had an intimate group with pretty decorations, yummy goodies and a smiley ballerina to focus our attention on. Lilly Rose was in a great mood, ate cake (cupcake) for the first time and opened lots of gifts. The most special gift was the one my dad (papa) gave Lilly, my very own child-hood rocking horse he made for me when I was her age. He updated the sweet horse with a fresh coat of paint (pink, of course) and I just know Lilly Rose will love it just as I did. Thanks Papa & Yaya for such a thoughtful gift (and all the other sweet things, too!!).
I won't bombard the blog post with tons of pictures because I turn my blog into a book for our family keepsake and I already made a birthday book of all the pictures. A special thank you to Uncle Jordan and Aunt Oana for taking the pictures so I could focus on the birthday girl. So, with all that said... here's my birthday ballerina (who refused, of all the days to refuse, to wear a bow, ha!).
Happy First Birthday, Lilly Rose!!!!
