Anaston's Very 1st Birthday Party!

These pictures are very out of order but oh well! Everyone did a really good job of taking pictures for me and video! I couldn't be the photographer with trying to control the party and help Anaston so everyone was so nice to help me out!I think we got some good ones! You would never guess this is only like half of them cuz I posted so many but here's just a preview! I would post the video of her getting into her cake cuz it's priceless but I hate posting videos and plus, it's like 8 minutes long! I still have some professional ones that were taken. I'll post them soon as I get them!

She couldn't stop hugging this bear Grandma Knight gave her, it was so soft and sweet! She loved playing with the cool shades Nat and Tommy gave her with their present
And here she is modeling them
Daddy got her to look at the camera!
Anaston had to read this book as soon as ahe took it out of the bag!
All done opening presents! Starting to look tired, huh?
She kept giving the baby kisses afet opening it! How sweet is that?!?
Playing with her Mickey Mouse cell phone
If there was a box with a baby on it, she had to kiss the baby! She didn't miss one!
She wouldn't put down this Mickey card from Grandma to open her present, it was so funny!

Anaston stealing tastes of the frosting
Here's Anaston's own cake(pre-destruction)
Her Minnie Mouse Balloon boquet Daddy got her.
Brian got this really cute picture of our cousin,Karina's little boy Anden. Isn't he so cute?
Anaston telling Grandma Knight goodbye!


Anaston just had to share some cake woth Mommy!
And some more sharing, but this is before her hat fell off.
Me crowning my sweet little princess!(who is not being shy about grabbing her cake)
This was so funny! She got all shy when everyone sang to her so she was tring to hide herself!
Her dang hat would no stay on very long!

Matthew came sneaking up under the table while Anaston was getting into her cake so she did not hesitate to smear her frosting covered hand in his hair, it was hilarious!
And here is her finished product!
Mmmm...Yummy!
Daddy was giving her ice cold water and she thought it was so funny! She would laugh so hard after he would give her a drink!
The Birthday Princess with her messy little face

You think that wore her out?!?
She loved her cake...every bit of it! But she DID NOT like Nanny and I cleaning her up afterwards!
I love her face here!

Sitting in the bus with Brooklyn and London
Check out her hair! It was getting all static in there!

Here's another shot of the static hair, sorry the sun was so bright!
She loved the bus!

As many of you know, we had Anaston's 1st Birthday party yesterday. Her actual birthday isn't until this coming up Friday but with having family in town we decided to do her party the week before her birthday instead of just after. We had a great turn out! We had many family members and friends come out to support Anaston, Brian and I and we really appreciate it! I was a little nervous and pre occupied at the beginning trying to set up because the weather had suddenly shifted and it was a colder, super windy day! I had all these decorations and had the hardest time puttin them up with the wind! I got some help from Brian and my parents and we put a goos amount of the stuff up so we could get going with the party. It was so cute! We did a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse theme, since that is Anaston's favorite show and she just loves Mickey! My mom made really yummy cupcakes and brought ice cream but I'm smart and forgot to bring spoons! So Brian and I have a whole tub of ice cream in our freezer now! ha ha My mother in law made her trade mark delicous slushy drink. Everyone loved it! Anaston had fun playing with the kids on the playground, especially in the bus with Brooklyn and London. She LOVED LOVED LOVED her cake. We got her one of those personal sized ones and just let her tear it apart. While we were singing, she kept sneaking her finger and dipping it in the froating and licking it. Then she reallg got into. Played with it more than she did eat it. She was a MESS after that but that's the fun in the first Birthday party! She really got into opening her presents. She got SO MANY REALLY NICE THINGS! Everyone was so generous! She passed out for a long nap afterwards while Brian and I set up a couple of her new toys. It was so fun! She woke up and had a great time getting familiar with her new toys! She's got some new nice things to last her a while! Thank you everybody for coming all the way out to her party! The park we had it at was awesome! Anaston had a great time, which made my day! That's what this was all about, for Brian and I!

We were so sad we missed the party and that it conflicted with the hatch reunion :( It looks like you guys had so much fun and that Anaston got a lot of cute toys. I love that she had to kiss all of the babies and baby pictures. Ha ha. So sweet!
