Lucy's future friend Eli, with the curls and the cheeks and adorable dimples, had a birthday this weekend to celebrate his first year of life. It was cowboy themed with bandannas, pulled pork barbecue and sarsaparilla, and the weather was perfect.

Lucy wore a dress hand-sewn and hand-smocked by her Gramme, and topped it with a corduroy vest (since I couldn't locate any leather fringe at the thrift store). I appliqued a star over the Winnie-the-Pooh on the chest, and then later wondered if it was a major faux pas to come to another baby's cowboy birthday party dressed as the sheriff. Sure enough, Eli was also the sheriff, but he was very gracious in sharing his star and no dueling was required.

There was an overflow of cuteness going on. Just look at the eyes on these beautiful babies!

And now, a picture extravaganza. Happy birthday, Eli!
Wow, our kids are CUTE. And they have such cute friends! I think Eli was happy to share sheriff duties with his potential future girlfriend.
ReplyDeleteI know! I love the expression that Scarlett is making in that last picture, I had to include it even though it's a little blurry. She looks like she's about to say, "Roar!"
