Halloween+Birthday=Pictures!!

It been a really busy couple weeks...or should I say months. First I'll start with Halloween since I'm pretty darn late;( This year my friend Noelle and I threw a Halloween party. It turnd out really cute and was really fun! I'm so glad I met her and all the Modesto ladies!! I was a nurse (quite the easy costume since my mom works at upper valley peds)... We couldn't think of anything that went together so corey (being as he is and not wanting to spend one penny on cosutmes) was a hunter cuz he already has tonz of that sfuff...and I turned him into one with a head wound so I could nurse him back to health...haha so corny!!:)
During the summer I found some really ideas for a lady bug costume and thought Emerz would look adorable as one for halloween. So mom and I got together and she helped me measure and cut...and stich....and tie...and two days latter it was finished. We made to tutu and stiched the black pom poms on it, then the wings I figured out how to do by looking on youtube...what a wonerful thing! They are made out of tights and clothes hangers..and then I sewed on the felt circles. And for the finishing touch,antennas! I knew Em wouldn't leave a head band on so I just made them with her normal clippies and the left over pom poms. She was such a cutesie bug!! It was so funny to see her tutu wave back and forth was she walked. We took her to the trunk or treat at our church and she loved it.
Ok now for the Birthday Bash! I can't believe our little cupcake is one year old!! We had family over on her birthday for a little party and she got lots of great gifts. We also had some friends over on Sunday, like her little friends Emrie, Jason, and Kylee...thank you everyone for coming and for all the presents! She was in great need of some toys and books and she definitely got spoiled ;) I attempted to make a giant cupcake cake, but I was in a rush all day, and my cake was kind of pathetic so we had cupcakes for back up! Emery downed hers in like 4 seconds... sucking her thumb to get all the crumbs. It was hilarious! I'm gonna post the pictures on the next post...,.
