Allie's first birthday party

Our little girl is growing up.....

This weekend we celebrated Allie's first birthday. Although the weather didn't cooperate for our pool party/cook out, we made the best of it. After running in and out to cook the burgers and dogs in the downpour, the rain lightened up and we decided we'd let the kids swim for a while and then have our cake and ice cream by the pool. When we gave Allie her own little cake, she was a bit tentative at first, and then she took a big handful of the pink fondant bow and shoved it into her mouth...YUCK! She loved that bow....I tried to take it away from her and take it off the top of the cake so that she would dig in to the cake, but she just cried. So, she had several mouthfuls of the pink bow and finally decided to spit it out to forgo the belly-ache that was inevitably coming her way.

After a few bites of cake, it was time for Allie to open her presents. She got lots of fun toys, beautiful clothes, stuffed animals, a rocky horse, and a special bear named "Teddy". After opening presents, it was time for Ms. Allie's nap. She had a great day with her family and friends celebrating a fantastic and unforgettable first year....
