Happy Birthday Kayla!

Well it happen, my little girl turned one! My how time flies! We started the day being a little lazy, then headed out for lunch at the Rusty Bucket Cafe, here in Hurricane. Afterwords we let the girls take a nap and then headed out to the park in Green Valley. We refer to it as the Dizzy Park; if any of you have been there you understand why. For those of you who haven't had this opportunity, the park is made of toys that spin, hence the 'dizzy park'. We kept the party small with just the Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles. We all had a great time and Kayla was again spoiled!

Once again, I tried to keep up the tradition my mom started and make a custom cake for my little girl. I have to say I was pleased with the way it turned out. I used Starburst to make the bow, the orange swiggley lines and the pink squares. I thought about fondant frosting, but that stuff just doesn't taste all the great, even the marshmallow fondant (I tried it for Kylie's 2nd birthday). But warming up a few Starburst in the microwave give it the flare and it tasted oh so good!

Grandma Neb brought the pizza and Grandma Gardner brought the ice cream and drinks. Thanks Grandparents for all your help!

Kayla absolutely enjoyed diving into her piece of the cake! It took a little bit at first to really dig in, but once she realized it was all hers, there was no stopping her!

Here's the birthday girl digging into her gifts!

Kylie chillin on one of the seats on the playground. I'd have to say, I think Kylie had more fun then us all. We could barely get her over for cake, and as soon as she was done, off she went!

It was a great birthday and one I know Kayla theroly enjoyed! Again I decided to make a slide show to show off my angel and her first year growing up.
