Last Saturday, we celebrated Reese's 1st birthday. She had so much fun that by the end of the day she was sooo tired. Thanks to all who came and made Reese's birthday such a special day! And thanks to all my friends and family who helped me put it together!
I'm really loving the color yellow these days so I decided to do a bumble bee themed party.

Cake Pops as party favors! I had fun making them. Thanks to Kristen for teaching me.
Thank You tags made by Megan using Picnik.
The menu: Greek food - gyros with tatziki sauce from Daphne's, pita bread, hummus, orzo salad (click
here for the recipe, I highly recommend that you try it!), Greek salad, chicken kebabs, and some veggies. I really wanted to serve something different and kind of force people to be a little bit more adventurous with food.
Kevin's family's reaction when they found out I was serving Greek: "What?! Who's Greek?! She's not Greek?!"
The verdict: Everyone loved it!
Best chicken kebab I ever had! Thanks to my brother Juno for making it!
Special shout out to my friend Julieanne who brought the yummy fruit salad and traveled all the way from viva Las Vegas!
Party favors for the kiddos: Bubble Bees! I made the labels using Word.
Special shout out to my brother Juno for helping me put together the menu and again for the juicylious kebabs!
Special shout out to my friend Kristen for the delicious cupcakes and for being my inspiration about all things baking related.
Special shout out to Megan for helping me plan the party and being my inspiration about all things crafty!
Special shout out to my husband for allowing me to be a little crazy with the party.
Reese had so much fun playing and running around!
She did so well sitting on my lap as we opened her presents!
Instead of balloons we went with paper lanterns.
Here she is trying to blow her candle.
Yum!
The only family picture we took :(. At least next time we'll know better to take it before the party.
Thank You cards I made using Word.

I know Reese probably won't remember her party but I still wanted to make it special for her :).
Friday, we dyed eggs.
Cute bunny ears. Too bad we couldn't take a picture of both girls wearing them together.
We started with the egg hunt.
Reese trying to mess up the game.
I was one of the winners! 
This was my lucky egg. Nobody could beat me for a while.
Troy and Dylan couldn't be beaten either.
But the real winner was Lexie! She found one of the cracked eggs and ate it!
