What a day!

Wow. What a fun-filled, busy, exciting day we all had yesterday! I think I counted over 50 people all packed into our house (thankfully they all fit, even if it was a little tight at times) to help us celebrate Victoria's first birthday.

First, before the party, we had to go to the FOP Christmas party, where V did much better with Santa.

Then it was back to our house for the fun!

Opening presents... we quickly learned that all kids flock to presents like hungry seagulls to a bag of french fries:
