Happy 1st Birthday Sullivan Richard!

We had a little party with friends to celebrate Sully's first year of life!

the night before after Sully was tucked into bed the birthday fairies showed up and did a little decorating - the fairies were both 6 foot 5 men - but there 1st birthday decorating skills were amazing :)

I am so thankful that Hailey is artistic and was so willing to help make Sully's birthday cake so amazing - it turned out better than my mind imagined and the only tool she had to use was a butter knife!

November 11 starting with an early morning facetime to Nana & Papa

Sully didn't know what to do with the streamers - he grabbed one pulled it aside and quickly crawled through to get out :)

early morning presents from family


later that afternoon it was PARTY TIME with friends!

the BEAUTIFUL cake!

Sully looks a bit concerned about that candle



he picked away at the cake very slow and steady
















after a quick bath it was gift time

Oh my goodness! These birthday pictures are fabulous and I loved watching these. I also need to book a venue for my daughter’s 16th birthday party but it might be quite expensive place with disco. Could you please suggest some affordable disco themed San Francisco venues?
