Mya's 1st Birthday Party

**Sorry for a gazillion photos, my sister took lots and I can never narrow it down**

Mya turned one years old on October 8th and we held a Big Birthday Bash for both of us on the 15th, the day after I turned 30! Eeek! Here's her fabulous cake made by Jonathan's sister, Tina. Don't you LOVE it!??!







I don't quite think Mya knew what all the commotion was about, but she did love all the attention.




Heading outside to see all the fun.....


Mya loved baby food way longer than most babies do. Just in the last week or so has she decided she's not big on it anymore. So people food is new to her. She did love having some pizza for her party though!


Some of the girl cousins.... Who thought this was the most fashionable party they'd been to. Or so I was told! ;) (they loved the pink & zebra everywhere)

We invited Bozo the Clown to come make some balloon animals for the kids! LOL Jonathan is a total pro, but when his clown outfit didn't make it down, he decided to make some anyway.


His nieces & nephews were totally impressed! ;)

On of his specialties! 2 doves kissing in a heart! Ooooh!



The bounce house was basically to keep 16 rowdy kids OUTside & from demolishing the house and I'd say it did a pretty darn good job! The babies weren't as big on it though, but we did let Mya try it out.

Birthday girls!

(she fell 2 days before the party and skinned her nose! Makes for some bad birthday photos)

Before we even got 1/2 through the party, Mya was dozing in her chair. With a house full of 23 from the night before! PHEW! She didn't hardly get a nap in.




We managed to keep her up with out getting her too grumpy. Here she is nervously watching the candle since she burned herself on her actual 1st birthday!




Present time!





She loved this green bear as soon as she got it, but when she realized it played "you are my sunshine" she just kissed & hugged it over and over! It was so cute! Like love at 1st sight, definitely the favorite gift!







All her party gifts! Thanks to all the family who came to help us Celebrate and spoil her!
