Lilly's 1st Birthday Party

Lilly's first Birthday party was Saturday, January 1st at 1:30pm. We got the food and all the supplies in advance, but decided to get the baloons the day of to make sure they looked good. Early that morning Lilly and I went out to get them while Brendan did a little more cleaning around the house. We went to Party City on our side of town first. Well.... they were CLOSED! They taped over the New Years day hours and wrote closed. So, I figured the other one must be opened. WRONG! So here I am the day of the party with no Minnie Mouse balloon. I had already picked it out in Party city. So we went to Piggly Wiggly, Kroger, Bi-Lo, Publix, and the Dollar Tree. Still no Minnie Mouse balloon. I just got some regular balloons in pink, yellow, and white to match the plates, napkins, and cups. We got the cake from Publix and they threw in a "smash" cake. I was going to make her a doll cake with the dress in a pink polka dot like Minnie's, but decided that I would just use the one Publix gave us to save me a lot of time. We had a good turn out and Lilly enjoyed herself. She slept in the car for about 30-40 min. that morning, but she never took another nap because she was so excited! She Got some sleepers and PJs, some crochet hats from her Great Mama (Great Grandmother), a mega blocks barn, clothes, and Minnie Mouse lap table with matching Minnie cup, and Minnie Mouse doll. She learned the word cake by the end of the day and when we were eating cake she would walk over and say cake expecting a bite. Here are some pictures from her big day:
