So I finally got the photos from Riley's first birthday party to share. Her first birthday party turned out exactly the way I had wanted! I will admit we probably ordered and made too much food but we had a great turnout and great weather. We hosted the party at a clubhouse in our area. It is a great place and is located right on a lake. The ducks were out so we gave the kids duck feed so they could go outside and feed them. Some friends of ours loaned us a ball pit and the kids had a blast playing with it. Riley was in a great mood despite starting to come down with an ear infection. She did not enjoy the cake the way I thought. She was too prissy and did not like having her hands dirty. All in all it was a great day! Thanks to all our family and friends who came to celebrate!
