Saturday was Eliza's 1st birthday party at Julie and Jason's house. Mother Nature cooperated and it actually turned out to be hotter and sunnier than expected. Julie did a fabulous job with all the decorating. Everything matched the theme and colors of the butterfly/catepillar invitations and she thought of every detail. Eliza was a perfect host and didn't cry once the entire day. She looooved all of the attention, games and of course all of her presents. Especially her new hippo rocker, too cute! I think the highlight of the day was the potato sack races. They were supposed to be for the kids, but you couldn't keep us adults away from them. We had heats and then a winner's bracket; it was hilarious! I thind Kev's mom Patty won for funniest racer - she got about two hops in before laughing so hard she couldn't move anymore. LOL!! It was a blast; thanks J+J for such a great party!! Pics of the day :)
Eliza was obsessed with the colorful balloons!
