Snowflakes Everywhere!

Its over! It will never cease to amaze me how much effort goes into one little 3 hour time block! It was a lot of fun...and though Elle may not have noticed the decorations, she definitely noticed the yummy food!
after looking back at Robbies...I had to make the home made banner a tradition!

I have been collecting snowflakes...so I hung them wherever I could.
I know this looks christmassy, but I thought it would be fun to add the silver balls to white branches...for the colors mainly.
Elle's Snowball cake!


Rob and I dipped pretzels in carmel and white chocolate...starting at 11pm!

She didnt "dive" in...but she enjoyed the frosting.

trying to walk a little...
even with one hand!


Kim made the darling bow that matched perfectly!

Yes...Robbie was there too, though you would hardly know it because he was playing with his friends the whole time!

Looks like so much fun! I wish we could've come down to SLC but Jack ended up with the ear/sinus infection and wasn't loving life! But as always, everything was perfect! How do you do it??? BTW, love your blue shirt. Where did you get that find?

I am overwhelmed by all your blog updates! You are a great party thrower, my kids would be so jealous of your kid's parties...if they knew the difference. Congrats to Elle on turning one. It looks like you had a great holiday.

Elise said...

I'm with ya Tanna on the taking notes thing. Luckily, I have a little boy and a little girl just a little older than Robbie and Elle. Chel, could you just plan their parties a few months ahead and then send me the portfolio??? You are too cute. I love the matching too : )

She is getting so big, I can't believe she is ONE!! Your kids look so much alike, the older Elle gets to more she looks like Robbie. What cuties you have there!!

Yes, I finally got on the computer and looked at your darling blog... It came together perfectly, even without the white hot chocolate! Wish I could've been there (to help with the royal icing and just to hang!)
