 The display

 The display with Raquel:)

 I made chocolate R's for the cupcakes

 All the yummy treats

 The cake. This was my first time making a fondant cake

 I wrote Raquel in chocolate YUM

 Cake time

 At first she was eating the dots off the cake and then....

 She just bit right into it:)

 YUM

 Back to the dots

 This face is priceless

 Present time. I cant believe the wrapping paper matched her shirt perfectly.

 Trying to figure out what the present is

 All her fun toys. Thank you to everyone that came and for all the fun gifts

 After everything was over, Raquel wanted more cake:)

Just one more bite:)

Raquel, I hope you know how much we love you. You have been our little angel baby since the day you were born. You have brought us so much joy and happiness that we would not trade for anything. You have such an amazing little spirit and know that you will be a huge blessing in our lives. We love you more than words can say and hope you always know that your Father in Heaven loves you too. We have had so much fun watching you grow this first year and cant wait to see all the many years to come. We love you Raquel!!!!
