Emma's First Birthday Party

A year has flown by since our sweet Emma arrived. We decided to mark the milestone birthday with a French-themed party that was inspired by a dress a client gave me for Emma and, of all things, an Eiffel Tower shaped cookie cutter.

As we all know I'm so not creative so my mom added her magical touch to make the party memorable, like creating this banner that hung from the arbor in our courtyard.
Andrew's beachcruiser was turned into a French bike scene with flowers, a Bonjour welcome sign and a basket with breads, fruits and French cookbooks.
I always love cooking for our parties.
The birthday girl.

The proud parents.
Emma's first cake - Chocolate Mousse. She performed well for her crowd of adoring onlookers.

Pops usually stays behind the camera at these events. I'm glad we were able to get he and Granny with their messy granddaughter in this shot.

Thanks to our family and friends for your generosity and love!
We're so glad to have you in our, and especially Emma's, lives.
