The girls' 1st birthday party.

yesterday we celebrated the girl's 1st birthday with a party!  
we had a great time celebrating with friends and family.  
and i must say, i am super happy with the way all the decorations turned out!
the kids and i all got a little 24 hour stomach bug, one after another last week so i got a little behind with the party set up.  but a couple of sweet friends helped me on friday get everything set up and it turned out perfect!  
my favorite part?  
the birthday banner wall!  
here is is the mantel.  i pulled out my favorite pictures from their newborn photo session.  
i may have cried when putting these up.  and they may stay up for a while :) 
 the wreath on the door
 the party table.  we had yummy mini cupcakes, fruit salad, donut holes and quiche.  
 frames displaying the girls' monthly photos.  
i think i am going to hang these in their room!
giving hugs to carter!

 elise was intrigued by my singing!
elise was not too sure about the cake....
 clara was less hesitant and actually enjoyed the icing....for a while


waving "all done"
