August's First Birthday!

If anyone knows me, they’ll know that I like any excuse to have a party. I’m a busy body, and I LOVE creating things. The entire process is so much fun... coming up with a vision, hunting for treasures, photographing the final outcome, and genuinely enjoying the event and the company!

Before becoming a parent, I thought “why do people even have first birthday parties?! It’s not like the baby will remember!” But hey, the baby will enjoy the moment and will look back on photos and see how loved they are. It felt so wonderful to have our family together along with a few close friends to celebrate this beautiful gift that god blessed us with one year ago. Sure, making things pretty is fun, but the real reason for this party was to celebrate love! We made a sweet video about August’s first year of life that had everyone in tears, and it was truly so special.

Happy birthday to the love of my life!
