Birthday Girl!

Our baby girl is officially one year old!!! Justin and I cannot believe where the time has gone...Olivia has been such a blessing to us, like nothing we could have ever imagined. Her little personality is really coming out these days and she so funny and happy. Also, her vocabulary is expanding ("night-night", "bye-bye"). Today she even said her first sentence. She kept saying the same thing all day, but I finally figured out what it was when I came in the door and said the same thing I say multiple times to our two dogs when walking in the house: "Hi Boys!" I always ask Olivia if she can say "Hi Boys!" and today was the day!!

For Olivia's birthday we had a party at our house, mostly just family, but a few close friends came as well. Even my best friend from high school, Jane, was able to make it for the weekend. She and I hadn't seen each other since my wedding day, over five years ago! Granny and Gommer also came to Fort Worth, along with a few great-uncles and cousins who were able to drop by for a little while. We are blessed to have so many family members who live here as well, that were able to make it--what a crowd! Overall, I think it was a fun party and the only sad part is that Olivia is too little to understand how much she is loved, and by so many people!
