Happy Pink Saturday everyone! I'm back again...sorry to be so on and off with the blogging but we have been out of town a lot this summer.
My great niece, Bryar turned ONE on July 1st. Aah, there's nothing like a 1st birthday that includes a WHOLE birthday cake of your own!
First, before things get messy, I want you to see how pretty she was in her birthday dress. It is monogramed with her initials on the front. My sister, Bryar's grandma made the dress.

There were monogramed picks to go in the cupcake tree:


Waiting so patiently for her birthday cake. Had to take off that pretty dress - it's going to get messy!
Finally it arrives! No need for forks or hands - she has it all under control. Just go for it!!!!

It was soooooo good and she is soooooo proud:

A look at the end results:

Thanks for sharing Bryar's birthday with me. Now head on over to Beverly and see all the other Pink Saturday participants.
Have a "sweet" day and a better tomorrow!

That dress is so beautiful but she is totally adorable!! What an elegant party. It's so cute the way she ate the cake too. Thanks for the visit, I hope you had a wonderful Pink day. I've been participating on and off too with Pink Saturday, it seems there's always something to do on the weekend. Going back through your other blog posts was enjoyable too. I agree with Holly, the dancing picture is so sweet! Take care!!

Hi Caren,
What a precious little girl, the dress is adorable and that cake had to be the most divine thing put in front of her as far as food goes. ♥
Thanks so much for visiting with me. Have a wonderful PiNk day,
Stephanie ♥

Caren, that is absolutely the cutest post EVER! Bryar is an absolute doll, and I don't know if I've ever seen a girl enjoy a cake that much. LOL! Look at it on her arm! And what a cute, cute dress and cute cupcakes, too. Loved seeing this.
Happy Belated Birthday to that little angel, and thank you so much for your well wishes to me. It helped make my birthday complete. That, and TWO cupcakes! Yes, I was B-A-D, but they were G-O-O-D! And I had coconut birthday cake on Friday at a pre-party. But I still think Bryar enjoyed hers more! ;-)
Happy Pink Saturday...
XO,
Sheila :-)

Happy Pink Saturday Caren Sweetie...
Oh how I love these photos. I remember when you posted about Bryar being born. It does not seem like it has already been a year. Your sister did a beautiful job making her dress. It is so gorgeous. I love that photo.
Her sitting in her high chair waiting patiently for the cake and taking that bite, is so priceless. Such beautiful memories. I am so happy you shared. What joy these young children bring to our lives.
I am still battling my illness with my lungs. I am still very hoarse. The drs have checked out my vocal cords and they tell me that the coughing has strained them, and I may not get my voice back. I am not accepting that. I have a few connections with the big guy upstairs and he knows how much I love to gab. I am back on no talking for 2 weeks, we shall see what that does, and I also am still having to take steroids. They are killing my body. I have ached in places I didn't know existed.
I pray you and your sweet Ashley are well. I think of you each day I pass my precious Fairy door. It so touches my heart. It will always be in my home. I love it. It has taken me to many places the last 3 months that I have been homebound.
Sending you many hugs sweetie and so much love. Always and forever your sweet friend, Sherry

LOL, messy but so much fun for her. Look at that happy face!
It seems like it wasn't long ago when you shared the time s he was born. I'm remembering right, yes? Time sure flies fast when you're not noticing or having too much fun :-)
Happy Pink Saturday, Caren!
Mizpah,
Li
