Eva's 1st birthday party...

Ugh - I've typed this once & who knows what happened but I lost it all... so here goes again!

So today was Eva's first birthday party - everything turned out so GREAT! The weather was wonderful, the guests were wonderful, the party decorations - it all just went to plan... perfect! I couldn't have asked for it to be better:-)

We had the party at Nanni & Poppy's house, & decorated the garage. Eva had red table clothes w/ recycled glass jars w/ spring plants inside & red ribbons... they turned out so cute! And it was nice b/c when the party was over Grace got to give away the flowers as little party favors. She loved passing them out:-)

The first thing we did is presents - Eva was so cute, such a little lady sitting in her rocking chair unwrapping presents only when handed to her... happily letting Grace help her unwrap them. And Grace being a GREAT big sister helped a lot. Eva got so many wonderful presents - and tons of cute clothes! I can't want to start dressing her up, she'll have tons of things to where for photo ops!

After presents we did cake & ice cream. When we sang Happy Birthday to Eva, she almost seemed in shock that everyone was singing and watching her:-) We got her a special cake from Linnie's Bakery - Bill the owner made it special for her w/ no milk. She loved it! Her first cake ever - she had at least two handful ls before she decided she wanted down to push her wagon.

The whole day was just wonderful - we're very blessed to have such wonderful friends & family.
