First Birthday Party

The girls' birthday was a whirlwind of activity.  I made pink pancakes for breakfast (even sent DH off to work with one hehe) and then attempted some birthday pictures with little luck.  Then it was cupcake making and ordering (a sweet girl agreed to drop the 24 hour rule when my original bakery dropped the ball at 9 am).  Then while they napped I started putting up some of their birthday decor.  We played with their new toys and DH took off a half-day at work in order to help prep for the party and hang out.  Kendall was in awe of the balloons on the ceiling and kept staring at them and at me as I taped them up.  Seren was more interested in her toys still. I felt a little stressed at the end as the details came together last minute and chicken quesadillas were finished up.  But family and friends helped out and I was able to really enjoy the party with the girls and I'm grateful for that.  The decorations came out just as well as I had hoped and the cupcakes were great.  So here is their first birthday in pictures:
