It's hard to believe that little Ava Young is already 1 year old. Where did the time go? Today we celebrated her birthday with a huge party and Ken and Lisa's.
Lisa and I worked until around 2 in the morning last night setting everything up. Then this morning her friend Ingrid came over to put on the finishing touches.

The Cake Table


Papa (aka Carlos) The God-Father

Bonnie the God-Mother

We had a chocolate fountain with strawberries, pretzels and marshmellows to dip!

Coffee and Punch to drink.

Our friend Millie catered the party. The food was GREAT!


Ava seemed to really enjoy everything!

There was a HUGE Dora bounce house.

And a smaller ones for the little kids.

Ken's mom made flan too. It was so yummy!

There were also three different crafts for the 30 or so children to do.


This is Sierra with her friend Nathan. They have literally been friends since they were born about 8 years ago!



The last time me, Kathleen and Lisa took a picture together was when Kath and Lisa were both pregnant about 6 years ago. We thought it was time for a new one.

Ken's mom Celia with the birthday girl!

Lisa's mom, her brother Josh and her sister Michelle

About 100 guests came to the party!


This is Phil, Ken's oldest best friend. They were grew up together in New Jersey.

Janice and me!

Gloria, Jolynne, and Ethan

Laura, Marisol and Angelica

Ken and his two best buddies Carlos and Phil

Millie and Raul's girls!

That looks like such a fun party! I love the color scheme and how you and Lisa were coordinated to match it. =)
We had a lot of fun and loved the pink and brown color combo too!
WOW. You guys went all out for the party! I don't do a lot of decorating or special things like that until the kids are old enough to know what's going on (LOL)....
Looks like a great reason to throw a giant party, Emily! That's more people than came to my wedding, lol.
I like the makeup photos, and I'm sending you an email to ask you a few questions. :)
