Willa turned one on May 27th. We had a little party for her on Sunday. Willa loved every bit of it. She was loving all the attention from her guests and was super excited about her individual cow cake. She even got to have pony rides at her first birthday party. It just so happened that Grandpa Next Door (John) surprised Ellen on Sunday morning after church with two Shetland ponies and a wagon cart to give all the grandkids rides. So.... Willa had pony ride at her very first birthday party! We also had a bonfire and camp out. 13 of our nieces and nephews or cousins spent the night and Jolene braved the camping out too. The kiddos did awesome and slept in the tents the entire night. Willa was super excited the next morning to wake up and find all her best friends at her house for breakfast and to help show her how all her new toys work!

My mom gave Willa an official Daniel Boone hat for her birthday. We are all a little confused by this gift. However, Grandma Barb had been looking for it for awhile and was excited when she found it in Sacramento for Willa! She also got an adorable outfit.


Happy Birthday Willa! Looks like she had a great time.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry we missed it. Having kids really makes the distance that much harder :(
