It's a LOBSTER PARTY under the sea!

 
 
What a year! I can't believe our Ella is 1!
She is my life, she is my joy. I'm so lucky to be her momma!
  
 
Boardwalk
 
 
 

 
Now we can't have a beach party without greasy, lemon splashed, newspaper steamed, fish N' chips.
These are the best "greasies" this side of the pacific, they're making my mouth water just talking about them. A new summer tradition must!
(I substituted a bottled bitter lemon drink for the beer and added a few dashes of paprika for color)
 



Are these the prettiest sodas you've ever seen! Candy to my eyes.
Watermelon Agave, Blood Orange and Pink Grapfruit.


Matt made this cute frame for Ella, our beach babe.



 
I thought it would be fitting to do some sort of hadprint art for a first birthday. I'm amazed we look as composed as we do, it was almost impossible to get ella's hand on the ink and onto the paper without getting it everywhere. RED was not a good choice! First time mom here learning as I go:) Note to self never use red ink with a one year old in a new outfit! 
 
 
 
 
 
Ella has a thing for OVEN MITTS! (and pinching:)) Couldn't be more fitting for this lobster party.
 
 
Happy Birthday to my Sweet Little Lobster, we Love you to the Ocean and Back!
 
 
A huge thank you to my mom for being my right hand, and my awesome sister in law Jamie, for the pictures. I would not have a record of this fun day without you. I owe you!
 
And to everyone who came, THANK YOU for loving our Ella!
