Time for a party!

So, we made it.... one year has gone by with Little One... It has been a year full of ups and downs. As most of you know Little One's life did not start out exactly perfect with a trip back to the hospital at 5 days old with RSV. She came through that though and has been a joy! Such a good natured, happy, easy baby! We decided to throw a party for our friends and family and we were so happy that so many could join us. It was a fun night.... Great friends, great times, great food and great wine! :-) The kids had a blast in the backyard with the trampoline, bacci ball court and soccer balls and goal... We turned our garage into a craft wonderland and thanks to my sister (who has to be the most patient woman in the world) put on her teacher hat on her day off and ran the room. The kids had tons of things to work on... the girls had wooden butterflies and the boys had wooden airplanes that they could paint... and boy did they paint! :-)

We also had foam placemats and foam door handle holders that could be decorated with a variety of different foam stickers... The garage is still in craft (AKA disaster) mode but the kids had a blast and that was what was important!

Little One did great... We had about 50 people here and it was alot to take in... but she handled it like the star that she is. The highlight was ofcourse her cake... She had so much fun. She started out looking at it and touching it with her fingers and then it became like a pie eating contest with her entire face in her cake... It was great. Thanks Daddy for taking her upstairs and giving her a very good bath!
