Olivia's 1st Birthday Party

So, the day has finally arrived.  For months I have been planning a celebration for my youngest daughter's 1st birthday.  I must say that for all the time, energy, and hard work that I put into this party it seemed to fly by so fast.  I know my family is certainly happy it is finally over.  No more strawberry crafts and decoration piled up around the house.  :)  Well here are the pictures.

These are the cute cake pops.  They turned out so cute!  Thanks for all the help mom:)

So my mom warned me about using bettercream instead of buttercream under the fondant.  She was right as always.  It didn't hold up well and it began to melt.  So she had a saggy cake, but oh well.

A big thank you must go out to dimpleprints for the darling printable package.  It is what truly made the party so unique!

I made strawberry garland out of felt, black puffy paint and some ribbon.  It turned out really cute.

Homemade strawberry jam for the adult party favors.

The drink station.  I made a very yummy strawberry lemonade :)

Grandma made the cute dress and ruffled bottom pant outfit.  She couldn't wait to get into that cake!  I will have to post the rest of the picks later.

In the end the party was a huge success!  I got so many of my ideas from different blogs and I want to be sure to mention them all!
