Her first Birthday!!!

Our little girl turns one! What a wonderful year it has been, and we sure love our Katelyn Ruth dearly. She brings a ton of joy into our lives.
Her breakfast before we dashed off to church. :) After the service we went to the Windmill for lunch, back home for a rest, and then to the evening service. Then we all went to Henry and Heather's for a BBQ/celebration.
Katelyn is eating a pizza bun. :)
Everyone finding something to munch on.
The guys watching the sausages and hamburgers. Brad is a great bbq-er. :)
Rocking her cousin Jordan - she can do that now, cause she's one. She's big.
Then she had her cake brought to her (video below) and started in on her presents. I wished I could have gotten a traditional cake eating messy shot, but Katelyn didn't want to eat cake, and it was already getting late and on the fussy side, so we skipped it. :) But she did enjoy her presents, and here she's holding her little lamb from Aleita and puzzle from Valerie. :) She was blessed with gifts. :)
Auntie Nelly gave her an adorable teddy bear and a muffin - because at the Windmill, she's known as 'muffin'.
Uncle Marv, Aunt Marlene and the cousins came for the wedding last weekend, and they brought Katelyn a puppy. :) It is a cutie, and Katelyn loves dogs, but with everyone's blessing, we passed the dog onto a co-worker at the Windmill. But I'm sure when Katelyn is bigger she'll want her own little dog.
Uncle William pushed her around the yard with the puppy running alongside...it was so cute, and Katelyn giggled quite hard.
