Which I mean, I rarely call my niece Audrey. I say Aud. Like with a heavy (in my opinion) New York accent ala my Uncle Glenn referring to my Grandma, the original Audrey. Aaaaaaaud. Anyways. Baby girl somehow is one! That was probably the fastest year yet. Her birth just happened am I right? Poor girl wasn't feeling quite herself the day of the party so she took it all very seriously, but at least there were no tears! She even took a nap and then came back to the party. It's her party and she'll nap if she wants to. Girlfriend likes her sleep.
My brother and sister-in-law moved the party to my parent's basement just to give all these people more room. It was fun to see how Ash had the basement all decorated! She's so good with all that stuff. It was a Winter Onederland theme so there were lots of trees scattered about everywhere. And lots of photos. A photographer's daughter's party must have a lot of photos!
There was appetizers and drinks before gift opening. There is never a lack of helpers when it comes to gift time at these parties. Like moths to a flame, these kiddos. The super cute cake was delicious. I may have found my replacement bakery now. Somehow Aud allowed me to cart her around from family to family to get photos because that is just what I do at these parties.

The happiest of birthdays to you my dear Audrey! I hope you feel better and are back to your smiling self asap! We love you! And please cuddle more. Please and thank you.
