A Sweet Little Birday Party!

FLASHBACK FRIDAY!

Over the last 6 months one of the most popular blog posts on My Pigeon Pair was celebrating Little Miss A’s 1st Birthday!  These posts are littered throughout the blog, so today I have tried to combine them all together in one MASSIVE PARTY POST!

When it came time to celebrate Little Miss A’s Birthday party, I was more than a tad excited!  At last I could plan a little girls birthday party!  Of course the colour pallette would be PINK!  With a touch of green to celebrate that this little Irish baby was born on St Patrick’s Day!

With this colour pallette in mind I began to swoop upon possible themes.  I wanted something different, something I hadnt seen all over the net, luckily my party girls Anders ruff, yet again, came to the rescue.  Sweet Little Birdie!  Here are the printables!

Anders Ruff
On to her outfit and the extremely talented Tara K Designs designed and created this divine outfit for her!
With shoes and a hairband to match of course!

It’s my Party, I am way too excited to sit still for a photo!
Master O: Are you excited about your Birthday party?

You bet I am!  I want to dance!!
Check out the feet!!!

Some little eggs to take home to your nest.

The Birthday Cake
I am sure it would be easier to buy a cake but it’s so much more rewarding to make one!
Icing mishaps and all!

Blow out your candles and make a wish!
The cake knife was an engagement present from my parents.
It has cut our engagement cake, wedding cake, both christening cakes and all of our birthday cakes ever since!
The cream ribbon is from our wedding, the blue from Master O’s Baptism and the pink from
Little Miss A’s baptism!

so lady like with a spoon for the cake….
Well for a moment at least….fingers work much better!


Did you say photo? Strike a pose!

Can you believe more than 7 months later I am getting a bit teary!  She has grown up so much since then!  She is still a party girl, but one of the easiest babies!  This day will always hold such special memories surrounded by all of our family and friends.  I will savour every photo captured as we are not having such a huge party next year….or will we??
