"Cutie Pie" Adoption Party

Happy Thanksgiving Week!

 
A few weeks after Milannah's Adoption, we celebrated her! I chose to not do a huge 1st Birthday Bash & do an Adoption Party, instead.  I'm so glad I did! We had a wonderful time seeing so many family & friends come out to support us & our girl.  She got some unbelievable gifts which we did not anticipate at all.  The "Cutie Pie" theme worked out perfectly! We served Lunch & I had some activities for the kids to do.  Our Pastor, Pastor Doug, shared about Adoption & what it means to the Lord & as Christians.  He did a wonderful job! We finished w/ a Cherry Pie Eating Contest which was SO FUN! 
My bestie since 7th grade, Heather, surprised me from FLORIDA.  She, along with her 2 girls, had made the trip. I was IN SHOCK.  I will save that story for the next post.  For now, enjoy! 
I had some amazing help with the party from start to finish & couldn't have done it without the help!
First up with be the decoration pictures & then party guests after that.  :-)

I cannot believe how much your daughter looks like you! Different coloring, but identical faces. Crazy.
