Alilias birthday party was on June 28th (her real birthday is the 26th)...and since then I've been trying to recuperate so I could actually sit down, relax, and enjoy blogging about it. =) Despite the 109 degree weather we had a blast. The kids loved it all, and I'm pretty sure the adults enjoyed their time even if they were sweating bullets lol.
I can't even say it enough. We truly are blessed with the best, from our sweet baby to all our friends and family who made celebrating our Alilias first year of life possible. Shawn and I could have NEVER done this alone. So besides the biggest thank you to our Heavenly Father for blessing us unconditionally- another HUGE thank you to all those who made this celebration one that we'll always remember for the rest of our lives.

| ...got this idea from Pinterest and loved it. It was a total hit. Thank you to my artistic husband, his cousins Steph and Marquez, and my cousin Junior for drawing these life size animals for decorations....they were a hit. |

| ...I had to get a shot of these... My sis Tangi put her SAHM skills to test and made these canvas' of Alilia. They are huge and were just the cherry on top. Of course Shawn and I only ended up with ONE out of 5. These too were a hit at her party, everyone loved em. (Especially her grandmas and aunties who have em lol). |
