Scarlett's 1st Birthday!

Scarlett turned one today!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I can't believe it's already been a year!  And yet, I can't remember my life without her!  

We weren't going to throw a huge party, but since Jake's next job may be out of state we realized this might be one of her only birthday parties with all her cousins.  So, in true Seaver style - we went all out!  :-)

All her cousins were able to come!  Also all her aunts/uncles (sans Uncle Kent and Uncle James), grandmas/grandpas, and even great-grandparents were able to come!!!  We're so grateful they were able to come and celebrate with us!

My sister Kandy's sister-in-law Stacy (follow?) is the Bakery Manager at Maceys and she does AWESOME cakes.  She made our wedding cake.  Well, I asked Stacy to make her a smash cake and another chocolate/raspberry filling cake for everyone else.  I sent her a few pictures of Scarlett and WordWorld (her favorite show).  This is the smash cake:

When we went to pick up the cake at the store, Scarlett kept turning around in the shopping cart seat to stare at her smash cake.  She loves Dog and kept trying to touch it, so when we finally let her have the cake she went to town!

This is the amazing cake Stacy made for the rest of us.  She's so talented!  It looks just like the show.  She even found more pictures and made it incredible! Thank you Stacy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  (and it was as tasty as it looks!)

We turned on WordWorld so everyone could see how excited she gets for it.  She clapped and smiled through the entire opening then went into her WordWorld daze:

Turns out the show has the same effect on her cousins (at least it's educational, right?)  Also, I was going to remove the red eye, but I think the picture is better with it...

I caught Scarlett picking her nose :-)  She kept sticking up her nostril then in her mouth, gross!!! 

This is Scarlett's favorite viewing spot. She would watch an entire episode there if we let her.

Then we played "Smack a Smooch on Scarlett".  Courtney introduced me to this game at my bridal shower, and I just happened to have the perfect picture (she was making funny faces when we did her birthday photos last week - all faces except smiling that is!)

There was a lot of measuring going on - in the true Glauser fashion.

But Braxtyn just hit the bulls eye without even breaking a sweat.

Lots of love!  (we won't mention Aunt Jami's kiss out in la-la land...)

She got tons of great birthday presents that her cousins helped her break in.  I am excited to put her in all her new outfits!  There is one present I am going to blog about later - it's nostalgic.

When we were leaving we all stood over her and held up one finger to show that she was one - and she copied us!  

All in all it was a wonderful birthday party!

Thanks again to everyone who helped and came!
