Makenna's Birthday Party

We had Makenna's birthday party on Saturday March 14. My whole family except Natalie and her husband and DJ's whole family were here plus Chris, Shannon, and their son Nash. We had a house full. My mom made lots of wonderful food and we stuffed our faces, including Makenna. Then she opened her presents. Wow, there were a lot of presents. She had a great time. She got lots of toys and clothes. We were so excited to see her eat a piece of cake. She was so funny. She tried to be very careful. She just took a little bit of icing off and ate it. As she kept going she got more daring and at the end she was eating a handful of icing. But she never would eat the cake. So DJ took a piece off and fed it to her and she did not like it at all. So, after that she didn't want any more cake. It was too funny. She wasn't very interested in opening her gifts. She didn't really know what to do. I think there was so much she was just overwhelmed. So I opened up her gifts and then she started playing with them. Her favorite thing was the cards. She just wanted to play with the cards. I had to hide them from her so she would play with her other toys. It was a very fun day but we were all very tired. It was wonderful to have everyone here to celebrate her first birthday. Thank you to everyone. Makenna loves all her presents and we appreciate everything you gave her. We love you all. Here are the pictures of her party.

Cristi, she is just the most gorgeous little girl!

Looks like you all had a great time - and WOW! SO many toys! You may have to start thinking of extending her little play area!!
