McKelle turns 1!!

I still can't believe that a year has gone by and my little Mckelle has turned a year old! But on July 13th that is exactly what happened. A year ago I was meeting this perfect angel, bringing her home and learning to be the best mom I could possibly be for her. It has been the most rewarding, fantastic, loving, enjoyable year of my life. And once again when I looked at her on her birthday on Tuesday, I let the tears come, on this day I still couldn't believe I was so incredibly blessed to be able to be her mom. Words can never explain the blessings of being a mother.

Throughout the day we decorated, and got ready for her very first party! I had been planning it for like 3 months haha. I wanted it to be so fun and perfect for her, even though I do know she won't remember it in years to come I know that I will, for it was HER day! The decorations and cake matched, I of course got her her very own cake, which she of course dug right into and loved it, and ate a lot of it! So many friends and family came to celebrate her life with us on this first birthday. We started with gifts, she was a little tired when we started gifts, but she held it together! She got so many, and loves them all. We moved on to introducing her cake next, and again let me tell you, she absolutely loved that, cake everywhere and loved eating it. While she was enjoying her cake, we all ate and visited, and enjoyed watching her devour it. It was a great day and night for her and were lucky enough to share it with the special people in our lives!

My mom and dad, my sister Carm, and her kids Adalene, Alex, and Ashley from Kansas, Quinn, Ryan, and Kaea. My brother JayC, and his girlfriend Larissa. Alex's parents, and three of his younger brothers and sisters, plus Ashley his other sister. And also our great friends James, Courtney, and Little Ava, were all amoung our guests. It was such an enjoyable and special night, and I am so thankful for all of them, that they could celebrate with us.

Happy Birthday McKelle, I love you beyond words!!
