Birthday party--round one

This past weekend, my parents came up to Jackson to celebrate Ivy's 1st birthday! So we had a small party for her...and we will be having another one next weekend with Aaron's family!

Here's the birthday girl, all ready for her party to start.


We had a delicious supper...


and then it was time for Ivy to open presents!


She loved ripping into the paper!



She got a lot of fun stuff, like a Little People book,



a farm puzzle,



a Little People car,


a duck that Kaine and Halle picked out that Ivy absolutely LOVES,

cute hair barrettes,



and an adorable riding toy



that was a hit with everyone!



I can tell she is going to get hours of enjoyment out of it!



Her cousins watched patiently as she SLOWLY ripped every present open :)



Then it was time for cake. I'm not much of a cake baker, so I decided to do something pretty easy that would be hard to mess up. So I made ice cream cone cupcakes!




She dug right into hers...



and enjoyed every minute of it!








It was such a fun evening! (She's ready for round two next weekend!)
