Kayla's Year and Half Family Birthday Party

 Since we had to have such a small little party for Kayla on her actual 1 year old party due to Covid, we decided to have a fun summer party on her half birthday!  It was a beautiful day and I was so happy to see so many family and friends that we hadn't seen in a while.  I was so caught up in watching Kayl and talking with everyone that I forgot to take a picture of the main decorated table... It had her "ONE" sign, her birth plaque that listed all her birth states, her scrapbook, and it had the banner of her monthly pictures hanging up.  I'm so disappointed in myself for forgetting to get a picture of it, but it was a great day!  Here are the few pictures that I got!

Her birthday party was Minnie Mouse themed!  Look at the Minnie Mouse fruit we had!



Here is a picture of her cake!  I loved it!!  We got it at BJ's


Here is a pic of some of the people at the party.  We had a tent with tables and chairs setup.


The birthday girl!  She was able to fit in the same dress she wore in her 1 year pictures.


Besties!


The kids had a blast playing in the pool, water table, and sprinkler that we had out!  This was everything that I wished my birthday parties were growing up!

The sprinkler was a hit!  The kids loved running threw it!

Happy birthday cake time!




She was a little hesitant to dig into her cake.  She doesn't like getting her hands messy.



But who can resist cake!?!?



Yum! Yum!!


That's some concentration right there!!

Maia wasn't shy about helping Kayla dig into her cake!  She got herself some bites!



Three Amigas!

Present time!  All the kids helped us get into the toys.  The Blue's Clues House was a hit, and is one of Kayla's favorite toys!  She also really loves the baby dolls and accessories that she got.  She also LOVES the blanket that I'm holding up in this picture that Vi got her.  She loves to cuddle up and lay on it all the time.

Towards the end of the party, Kayla got dressed into her super girl outfit in honor of Papa's birthday the next day.
