Party Time

This weekend we had Katie's 1st Birthday party. It was a chilly day so we had the party at our house. About 36 people came by, local friends and family, and lots of Katie's little playmates. The highlight of the party was singing to the birthday girl (she loved it and clapped along with everyone at the end! So cute!) and watching her devour her first bites of chocolate cake. She enjoyed every last crumb! After the big event, a bunch of people went outside and played touch football in our backyard. Katie doesn't usually enjoy being the center of attention, but she held up really well and seemed to enjoy the party. Thank you to everyone who attended and everyone who has been a part of our sweet daughter's first year!

  1. Maureen and Andrew, It looks like you all threw quite the party! I've been so anxious to see photos, so thanks for posting! The food looks amazing, the cakes/cupcakes look delicious, the playroom is an awesome place to gather, and the football in the backyard has Matt drooling. We wish we could have been there so badly, but please give Katie a hug, a kiss and our little gift on her birthday (if it arrives safe and sound!) Love you all! Happy Birthday, Katie! Love, M&M

  2. P.S. Katie is going to absolutely love the photo of you all on either side of her, clapping along with her, as everyone sings Happy Birthday. You are the most beautiful family, and she is so blessed to have you all as her loving parents.
