We celebrated Olivia’s first birthday with a fish-themed part at Doug and Karyl’s. They agreed to host it, probably not knowing what an undertaking it would be. We had nearly 40 guests, 15 pounds of pulled pork and four cakes.
Fortunately, Olivia managed to be awake for most of it!
Liv received many nice gifts. In fact, I should be writing thank you notes instead of working on the blog right now.
Ava and Leo helped open presents, something which Olivia has yet to fully appreciate.
The whole family singing “Happy Birthday”–note Doug taking photos in the foreground. I’ll post a link when they’re up!
Any daughter of mine should know what do with a piece of cake, but Olivia seems flummoxed.
Help is on the way…
I’d throw a party a month if I could always count on this much help. Thanks to Doug, Karyl, Mom, Dave, Gramma, Grampa, Katie, Jess and of course, Bryan.
