Well, it went as quickly as it came. I can't believe it's now been over a year since my sweet honeybee came into our lives. Times have really changed! I have had so much fun getting to know her and loving her more every day... and I must admit that one of my absolute favorite parts of this whole parenting experience has been watching my husband become a Doo. :) The 14 year old John that I fell in love with would be shocked at how his life turned out. I. love. it.
Here are some recap photos from the party on Saturday from my sister's camera. I did not take very many pictures because I was too busy crying over my baby turning 1 hosting a party! Let me tell you- we weren't supposed to be able to even have this little angel. She was a hope for us, not a guaranteed reality. Yet... here I am, writing this post after her first birthday. God is good people, God is good.

It was a good day and I slept like no one has ever slept that night. Phew!
I owe Kallah a 5 Things response. And next week I'll post pictures of this weekend's projects. The Naptime Decorator has inspired me and I'm going to paint some hand-me-down furniture to see what it's all about. Wish me luck!
