Baylor's First Birthday

We had such a fun little party for Miss Baylor on her BIG day! So many of her friends and family made her feel so special!!! We can't say thank you enough to all of the friends and family who traveled from out of town to make it to such an important day~ AND of course we can't forget our sweet family and friends that are here in Florence that took time out of their lives to make it to the party.
Lastly, thank you, thank you, thank you Aron Smith for capturing so many sweet moments! You are SO talented!!!!!! {and your husband is OK too-- ha ha!} Baylor will always be able to look back at these beautiful pictures of her First Birthday and see who celebrated such a special time with her- thank you for giving her that!
