We were blessed to have some family here to help us celebrate:
We had a fun day giving my brother and his family the "Grand Tour" of Dubuque. Our favorite is Eagle Point Park.
These were Emery's birthday cakes, the one on the left was for her and the one on the right was to be served with ice-cream to the family. It is well-known that I am NOT a birthday cake decorator...so Thank HEAVEN for Pixy Stix!!!
Emery was spoiled with noisy toys...and she had a
GREAT time opening her gifts!!!
GREAT time opening her gifts!!!
She loved each one so much, that she had a hard time moving on to the next wrapped present.

And after:
Nothing like ending an exciting birthday with a big bottle of milk!
We love you, little Emery, and we're so glad you're in our family!

Happy Birthday, Emery!! It looks like you all had a wonderful time. 1st birthdays are always special - but especially when the little one has had so many problems. So glad she's well again. And she is darling! I love LOVE her beautiful red hair, and that last pic w/ her chubby tummy is priceless! :)
Happy Birthday to your sweet Emery. Looks like it was such a fun celebration!
