Elsie's First Birthday

Both sets of E's grandparents came to help us celebrate her first birthday!

You guys didn't really think I'd eat this, did you? (She didn't.)
The "Love Bug" Cake - a near disaster. Note to self: take friend up on offer to exchange cake decorating lessons for sewing lessons and don't wait until the last minute to decorate a cake way beyond your skill level.
Owen impatiently waiting for Granny to cut the cake.

Opening presents
Aren't we photogenic? LOL


Elsie's birthday banner, modified from this tutorial. It reverses to brights for when she's too cool for Valentine's Day themed parties. ;)
The birthday outfit: Emmy dress and modified Candy pants from Ottobre 1/2008 (I think. I'll double-check the issue later.)

Elsie's got the best clothes EVER. Thanks for being so prompt about the pictures. Nice evening here with your parents, Sarah. Thanks for bringing them to this neck of the woods.

I googled sarah and elsie to see what came up because I wrote a story for a fiction class about a woman named sarah who had a daughter named elsie. I also wrote one about a man named ray, based on ray bradbury. Kind of a weird coincidence that those names are 3 of the 4 names in your family!
