Opal's first birthday! I can't believe she is already one......here are all the pictures I've been promising to post.
Opal's first book was The Very Hungry Caterpillar....so that's what the theme was of her party. These are the invites I made. They really shouldn't have taken as long as then did, but little O wasn't feeling well and wanted to be held the whole time. Ever tried cutting out little tiny circles with a one year old on your lap?.......not recommended.
This is the caterpillar I put together of Opal with a picture of her every month.
This is her cake....copied it off pinterest.....well really her whole party.
I'm pretty proud of my handy work. That's the first time I've ever done icing.
Thanks Lisa for all your last minute help in cutting stuff out.
These were the party favors....some caterpillar food.
Watching Opal open her presents.
...she had a lot of help....she isn't very good at it yet by herself.
This is her book that we had everyone sign to remember the special day.
Her birthday hat I crocheted.
The food.
Opal was helping a lot....
The Birthday girl
I love it. The second Finn cam in he went straight for the cupcakes and dove in....glad to know they were good.
Opal's first cake.
She went straight for the eyeballs.
Obviously all these pictures are out of order, but I worked last night and haven't slept all day and don't feel like spending the time to fix it.
