Whose crazy idea was it to invite every person to our house on a Saturday when it is supposed to rain and that means having everyone inside! Yikes! Well that is exactly what happened yesterday. We had a total of 56 people (including kids) inside and celebrating Lizzy's first birthday with a lot of food, cake and not so many tears!
See below for a quick snapshot but she did great. She loved seeing everyone, even let a few people snuggle and hug her! Thank you all for making Elizabeth's first birthday such a magical, fun event for Ben and I ... and Lizzy too! You are all so generous and we couldn't have been more excited to catch up with everyone for this special occasion.
To those that had to park a mile away, I'm sorry. Parking is definitely anything but ideal when we do larger parties but we completely appreciate you all coming, celebrating and not blocking our neighbors in! We are so blessed to have so many family and friends that are close to celebrate with. To the Minnesota family, we missed you and plan on coming back sometime this fall to celebrate with everyone there. We'll do a big bash with all the great-grand kids for Grandma Volkert!
