My Grandbaby Robyn Rose just rounded her first year, and we partied on Sunday to commemorate the occasion.

Pinterest helped. Duh.

Robyn's mommy, my daughter Kristen, worked for a couple months crafting all manner of decor during Robyn's naptimes.

Mighty proud of her...not just for her decorating/crafting abilities, but for being such a terrific mama to my grandbaby. See her below with her big sis Maddie, who hosted the shindig at her place.

I only pitched in by bringing the serving pieces, fake flowers (I own a plethora, as I don't get along with real flowers as yet), and styling the cake table.

Kristen made all the cupcakes and cakepops. Robyn's cake was two hearts stacked.

Love the wee candy cups and cupcake wrappers she used!

(dollar store candlesticks, plates and bowl made into a cupcake stand...

used at Kristen's wedding shower too)

Everything looked so sweet and springy and festive...

Especially the Queen of the Festivities....

Here she is just hangin' out with her bink.

And wondering why all these people with cameras are surrounding her....

Wait a sec...what is that?

Now that looks interesting.....

Are you kidding me? I get to eat this?

All by myself even?

You mean I get to *SMASH* this?

Now THIS is what I call a party.

It was (ahem) a smashing success, and all Kristen's hard work paid off.....I told her she was setting a dangerous precedent, but in these days of Pinterest, all bets are off, yo.

I'm just in awe how my wee grandgirl went from this...
