party time

it was a perfect spring day!

 we hung the letters, 'happy birthday vivien' with clothespins on twine strung between two trees, with an assortment of pictures of her first year.  super cute.  but, the wind picked up and you couldn't see anything.  not so cute.

 oh well.

 fun presents.

 new toys.

 the cake, half eaten.  leaning even worse.  but, still cool looking!

 first bite of cake. 

 loved the sprinkles.

 what party would be complete without a hanging horse head?  we had a pinata and amazingly, that's where it busted open.  i wanted to keep the head and recreate the head in the bed scene from the godfather to scare aaron, but my nephew wanted to take it home. 

 hangin' with grandpa.

all in all, a good time! 

happy birthday, girl!
