Sookie's 1st Birthday Party

Sookie's actual birthday was on Tuesday, but we celebrated with family on Saturday. Her party was purple and pink candy themed.

The amazing invites by the fabulous Jessica how cute are they? I am so thrilled with how they turned out!

I've gone through a myriad of emotions the past week or so; grateful, mesmerized, awe, with just a hint of longing for the precious moments scattered across the past 365 days with our girl, wanting to hold that 5 pound miracle in my arms again. Every parent says the first year flies by and truly, it does. It passed much quicker than my pregnancy.

 

Sookie and Glamma. I made her shirt and just adore how it came together! I'm craft challenged, so this was extra exciting for me.

The rock candy chandelier I had a crazy whim to create. It is still hanging up and Sookie squeals with delight when I hold her up to touch it.

I decided to hang her monthly photos across the mantle so we could all see how much she has changed!

The wreath I made for the front door.

Candy cane tree I made

My momma helped me make the cupcakes. I am domestically challenged, but wow, they were delicious.

These photos sum up what I can't put into words. There was so much love in our house that afternoon. We are some unbelievably lucky people to have such remarkable family members.

I adore how she brings us all together; how she motivates and inspires us all to be better.

Here's to a sparkling weekend; I hope yours was fabulous too.
