Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!

Yesterday we celebrated Anne Morgan's 1st birthday with a party! (Her actual birthday is not until tomorrow.) Here are quite a few pictures from the party. As many as we took, looking back there are several that we did not get. I really wanted to get pictures of her with her grandparents-each set and a group photo, as well as with her great-grandmothers. Unfortunately we didn't. We did have a great party though! It was REALLY hot and humid so everyone stayed inside...there wasn't any playing on the swing set until after the party and that didn't last long.
Just woke up from her nap, getting dressed in my party outfit made by Grammie!








Playing with Granny Sally (Trey's grandmother)

She was so excited about her horse! He even makes sounds when you feed him a carrot and gallops when you ride him!

Cute adirondack chairs!

And a Radio Flyer wagon!

Some of the guests.

AM and her friend Anna Rae. Anna Rae lives at the end of our street. We didn't know each other before the girls were born. She is the same age, her b'day is July 4th!

Reading a book with Great (my grandmother)

I think Addison liked Blaze too!

AM was so excited when her BF Hubb arrived! (Seriously!)

We did not try to get her to do this, she immediately reached for his hand! True love :)

C'mon Hubb, pay me some attention!

The kiddos enjoying a book, and Addison enjoying Blaze's carrot!

This is Lindsey, Anna Rae's mom. She's a kindergarten teacher so she's a pro at reading books!


She wasn't happy at first, but once everyone started singing to her she loved it!








She got the cutest Stella & Dot bow and necklace set!

Once the party was over she and Hubb had their first date. They went on a wagon ride in the back yard and then off to swing!



Trey's grandparents brought Trey's childhood rocking chair and rocking horse. Love them! So does AM.

She has not stopped playing with all of her new toys except for sleeping last night and extra long this morning. Thank you everyone for making her birthday so special!

This is her new favorite thing. This wasn't on the party day but I have been meaning to share this with you. She found one of my headbands that I use when I wash my face. Well, she LOVES it! She knows to put it on her head, I didn't show her how to do it either. I just noticed her one day last week with it on. She walks around with it on all of the time. Now I just need to get pictures of all of the ways that she wears it. She will not let me put it on her, she has to do it all by herself (hmmm, sounds a little familiar! ha!) I love you Anne Morgan. I can't believe that you are going to be a year old tomorrow!
