Jodi Simmons is 1 Year Old!

By popular demand, here are some pics of Jodi's birthday party on Wednesday.


The setting was our back yard under a canopy tent. Doug built the tent himself several years ago and we use it and let others borrow it for outdoor events.




Here's the birthday girl checking out her cake. The theme was puppies and kittens because Jodi loves them.





Close-up of the cake:



Opening presents with cousins and friends.

Eating cake for the very first time.




Mmmm...frosting, where have you been all my life?





In a sugar-induced daze, partied out, and ready for a bath!
What a fun day!

What a sweetie (and I mean even without the sugar frosting from the birthday cake). Thanks for sharing the photos.
