Taz and Belly

A Blog About My Favorite Things

Cupcakes and Lollipops

April 16, 2011 by Kristin Fields 3 Comments

There huge amounts of leftover goodies on my kitchen counter, three trash bags full of wrapping paper and paper straws and LOTS of books being read all over my house. The weather was beautiful and there were tons of pretty little kids running in and out of the house all morning.

The table looked beautiful and I could have eaten every bite all by myself. My aunt Lane made and iced 75 cupcakes yesterday, my mom perfected homemade buttercream icing and Sophie’s smash cake was to die for!

Josh got twelve months worth of my favorite photographs hung on the dining room wall last night. The baker’s rack was stocked with tea, lemonade, water and cokes. There was garland, bunting and paper poms hanging from the ceiling.

Our party crown arrived just in time and Sophie grinned from ear to ear every time we put it on her head. I’m so glad I got her something so special for her big day.

The best part, though, was the wonderful group of family and friends who joined us in celebrating the first year of this sweet little life. Sophie was the center of attention and couldn’t believe all of these people were in one place! She grinned from ear to ear as we sang to her and ate her little cake UP.

Real photos to come soon. In the meantime, we’re all taking a nap!
