Birthday Girl!

Presley sure had a great birthday! Happy to have family and friends come to celebrate with us. Nana and I made the cake (from scratch!) and decorated it, and we also had homemade ice cream... yum yum! I'm quite proud of my party planning skills (if you can't tell) and now I have a new hobby: cake decorating. Check out Presley with all her new toys on her special day. Here are a few pictures out of the million taken...

1 Year Old!

Birthday Flashback, June 1977

In honor of Presley's big FIRST birthday, here are a few pics of yours truly from my 1st birthday and around that time. Will post some of dad when I have them...there are a couple in some older posts.

Blowing out my candle! Look at the proud boys watching, awe.

Anybody see a little of Presley there? Nana and I do, hehe

Grandpa Stranathan holding me on my first birthday.

Me peeking around being silly.

Me & Mom at the lake.

Well this is me at 24 months but I just liked it, haha. Wish my hair could still be that blonde.

I can't believe our little sugar baby is turning 1 tomorrow!

Squeaky

Check me out in my squeaky shoes!

Love my stove!

Loving my stove Uncle Don & Aunt Bertie made me!! Well, it's really my cousin Randi's but she is letting me borrow it for now :)

First day of Mother's Day Out

5 days before her first birthday, Presley went to Mother's Day Out. She seems to be loving it! I got a couple pics before we left.

Pretty

Just thought these were really cute. Of course I think they all are :)

Who can stick out their tongue?

Me, me!!

Doing Dishes

Presley climbed in the dishwasher the other night after Dad had most of them put away.

Awe, I love these!

Showcasing my special photography skills, haha

More dancing!

This was hysterical. Presley watching the tv and really getting after it, on her tippy toes. Pop would be proud of this little dancer!

I wonder how many sleeping pics we have?

Well, here is one more. I can't resist....and a couple of her wearing a too small hat.

Tacos y Salsas

We found a little mexican joint called Tacos y Salsas last night, right close to our house. Happy hour is all day everyday from 11-7pm??? My kinda place. Friday nights they have a Tina Turner-ish singer in the bar and Presley displayed her dancing abilities at the table.

Plastic bins are fun to sit in

Surprise visit

Presley got to see her favorite Uncle Tim yesterday as he was passing through Dallas!

Attached

Presley just discovered this old puppy toy of Gracie's and will not put it down. Even tries crawling around with her arm around it. So cute!!

New toy

Bought a toy bin organizer thingy for the play room.... lotta good that did. Presley tore all the bins down and stood/played in them. I guess she has a new fun toy now!
