Party Like A Rock Star - Part 3


Hillary Clinton was right. It does take a village to throw a child's birthday party. This truly was a group effort. We are so thankful for all of our friends who helped make Harper's first birthday special. Here are some pictures taken by our other official family photographer, Steve

Steve hand made Harper a guitar shaped cookie cutter! Can you believe it? So awesome!

Emily, Steve's wife, put it to good use. She was also responsible for most of the other great food that day. 


Check out Harper's tattoo. A pink skull and crossbones - very tough!

Two of Harper's friends, Joseph and Ben, recently started a band called the Hurricanes. Their first official gig was at the party. They actually composed an original song for her and performed it!

Half way through the song, Ben got a little bored! Being a rock star is tough.

Here's the birthday cake.

She didn't quite know what to make of everyone singing Happy Birthday to her. Check out the leg warmers!

Present time!

Harper loves her "Pretty Learning Purse"! Not exactly something I would have picked out (haha), but she adores it. Thanks Aunti Em!

Yeah books - our favorite!


Thanks again to everyone. You all went way overboard on the presents as well as helping me put this party together. We are so happy that you shared this special day with us. And, we are even more happy that Harper is growing up in such a loving an nurturing environment. You guys rock!

I was thinking the outfit looked at little Pat Benetarish, circa Girls Just Wanna Have Fun. Definately one of the coolest birthday parties I've seen for a kid.
