Harper's Butterfly Birthday Brunch!

Last Saturday morning we celebrated Harper's first birthday with a fabulous birthday brunch! We had our families in town and close friends over at our house to help Harper turn 1! Wouldn't you know it, come the Thursday night before, I began to come down with something. On Friday, I was out for the count, running a fever and feeling terrible. I had visions of watching Harper's birthday from our bedroom window. It was very sad... Friday evening, Clark's mom and my mom both teamed up and fully executed my party vision. I went to bed and cannot take credit for anything that happened. I was totally blown away by the end result and so thankful that they allowed me the time to rest up so that I could be somewhat present on Saturday morning. Harper loved her party; she cried during the cake, but I think she just didn't like all of the attention towards her...not sure where she gets that.

On the menu for the party we had: a bloody mary bar, mimosas, mini ham and parmesan frittatas, sausage cheese bites, almond rolls, croissants, donut holes, fruit salad and breakfast tacos!

Anyway, below are some pictures. The first set of collages highlight some of the decor. The second collage is the evolution of the birthday cake. The rest are just other pictures :) Enjoy and thanks to those that celebrated with us!
