Happy Happy Birthday to our sweet girl Emily! What a happy day--we've been so looking forward to celebrating!
We had a small party on Emily's actual birthday with two of our closest family friends. The next day we headed to the beach for our week long vacation filled with lots of family time from both Whites and Tiltons so knowing we'd have another celebration with family there, we kept the party at home small and casual.
Emily (ok, really this was more for mommy than for her) got to enjoy her sparkly birthday tutu I made for her. She opened some gifts (with lots of help) and enjoyed some pizza. And had her very first cupcake all to herself! She love, love, loved it! Though I don't think she could figure out why we were all watching and cheering for her!
