Leibee's first birthday celebration was a very special event for our family. We spent a quiet afternoon together at the park, just Lowell, Leibee, and me (Lauren). Dining over a lunch feast from Wendy's, we also relaxed under the trees, fed the duckies, and took pictures together.
The festivities continued at her intimately-sized birthday party a couple of days later. More beautiful weather could not have been asked for, and we set up camp at a local park around a cupcake theme. The guests enjoyed yummy treats courtesy of Leibee's wonderful grandparents and aunties, uncles, and cousins, and everyone pitched in to make the party a smashing success! There was a cupcake-eating contest, ice cream cone cupcake decorating station, and tons of fun to be had taking a nice nap, chatting with others, or playing on the nearby jungle gym. Leibee was quite the exuberant guest of honor as she immediately rose to her feet upon hearing us sing "Happy Birthday" to her. She then daintily licked frosting and took a modest bite of her first birthday cupcake.
Phase 3 of Leibee's birthday celebration was a smallish family dinner over Korean tofu soup and barbecue with her grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, and parents. Phew! What a busy and exciting way to express our joy in reaching the milestone that was Leibee's very first birthday!
