party time

 We had the best time celebrating Savanna's first birthday!  She looked so cute in her tutu 

and she had an absolute blast with all of the balloons.

 I made her a butterfly cake out of cupcakes.  It turned out pretty cute in spite of my cake making/decorating abilities.  I made it the day before and I swear she knew what it was and was squealing and begging for it the whole day leading up to her big day.

 We had such a fun party!!  We had quite a few friends and neighbors come and help us celebrate.  

The weather was nice and the kids were even able to play outside for awhile.

Savanna was, of course, an absolute dream at the party.  She is such a social little thing and would crawl over to everyone and wave at them.  While we were eating dinner she would wave at different people and give one of her signature cheesers.  It is seriously impossible not to be smitten with her.  

 Savanna was spoiled rotten with gifts!  She was excited about all of them and Heidi and her friend Kaiden had a blast helping her unwrap each one.  

 I think Savanna's favorite part of the evening was the cake.  

 She was literally shoving the cake in her mouth as fast as she could!  

To say she loved it is a bit of an understatement.  

 She was even sweet enough to try and share some of it with our neighbor.

 I am pretty sure she would live on sweets if I let her.  She was such a mess when the cupcake fun ended, but it was so fun to watch her enjoy her first cake.  After the cake we scrubbed her up and while we were all visiting, she practiced walking to everyone in the room.  She loves to be the center of attention!

 Grandpa and Grandma Hunziker couldn't make it, but as always, they found the perfect gift!

Both of the girls have had fun playing with this rocking giraffe.  

Heidi has had a blast showing Savanna how all of her new stuff works.

Happy, happy Birthday to my blue eyed beauty!

I really can't believe she is already one.

I can't even describe the happiness she has brought to our family.

We love you, Savanna!
