Sydney and Co.

SYDNEY IS ONE!!!

Sydney turned 1 on June 19 but we had her birthday party June 22nd.
We don't know that many people in the State so most of our church members were at a conference...
That certainly didn't stop us from celebrating our baby girl's 1st birthday.. Grandma came into town and we had a PARTY..

Trophy Cupcakes and Party was the Venue since we were having a Tiffany's theme, their colors and Party room matched perfectly.
I made my own centerpieces.. spray paint and hot glue gun works wonders.


 
We had lots of food, rice, chicken and beef, sandwiches, sausage rolls, meat pieces, candy buffet, cupcakes, I even took the time to make pettit fours and rice krispie treats.


I had a custom soda made and also made a special punch to go with the theme color..
Everyone loved it.


It was a great day and I'm blessed to have a beautiful daughter and I can have parties for...
Now I have to come up with a theme for next year.

Thus Far

.,\So a lot has happened in our lives since the last time I put a post.
We moved from Bellevue Wa, to Issaquah, had a beautiful baby girl and husband got a new position at work.
The really exciting part was making a tutu dress, hair band and barefoot sandals for her 1st birthday photo shoot.


 
I had a blast doing the tutu dress. It was so easy and I had it all done in 2 days.
One does not have to know how to use a sewing machine to make a tutu dress...
Since her party theme was Tiffany and Co./ Sydney and Co. it was only right to have the tulle in tiffany blue.
The best part of it was making the belt...I found a tutorial on YouTube on making satin roses so I got my ribbon, glue gun, and I went to work. 'It only took me 2 tries to nail decent looking rose.
And to top it off, I embellished the roses with Swarovski rhinestones I picked up from Jo Anns.
