Okay, so this is a HUGE HUGE entry...but Jovi had such an awesome 1st birthday party at Oma's house in Houston! We had to include all the wonderful fun we had.
The day started with Mommy making pretty cupcakes for our cupcake themed party.
Our little party bags for our guest.
Here's Jovi in her birthday outfit...not her birthday suit, ha ha.
Jovi with Daddy, Mommy, Uncle David, and Auntie Grace.
Jovi loves Uncle David and Auntie Grace.
Playing with Uncle David & Auntie Grace, so that Mommy could mingle with our guests.

Craft time: the little kids got to make scarves, but apparently, Uncle David and Grace decided they wanted to join in on the fun.
The Garrison Family: Christi, Christopher, and Justin. 
Jovi and Mr. Henny...she loves balloons.

Playing on the floor amidst the crazy party house.
My adorable nephews, Hudson & Jackson.
Jovi playing with Ashton.
Ashton and Jovi were born on the same day. So we celebrated both 1st birthdays!
Ashton and his daddy making a scarf.
We let the kids decorate cupcakes in the garage. I made some samples, but they got to put whatever decorations they wanted. What can I say? I encourage creativity. :)
Tsk, tsk, tsk....Ms. Christi stealing a cupcake, JAH JAH JAH! 
Ms. Christi helping Christopher make a cupcake, and Jackson concentrating hard on his creation. Check out that face.
Great Aunt MaryAnna making a cupcake with Cousin Joseph, and Cousins Jackson and Huddy, too. 
Oma helping out. We love our Oma. She made Jovi's bday so special, and we are so lucky to have a great mother/mother-in-law that would allow us to have all of our crazy friends in her home. Thanks Oma! You're the awesomest!
Look how nicely the cake matches our plates and napkins.
Delicious!
We let Jovi have her cupcake first, so she wouldn't contaminate the cake.
Messy hands.
Mommy had to do a taste test....of course. What kind of mother would I be if I didn't make sure the cake was good enough for my daughter on her special day?
Jovi gave Uncle David a high five, so then we all had to clean our hands.
More cake.
...cause then we moved onto PRESENTS!!!

Everyone watching Jovi open gifts, and Uncle Nate being the photographer. Great Uncle Darryll & Great Aunt MaryAnna came to Jovi's party, too.
Mr. Ryan gave Jovi an awesome froggy to play with.
And it was a big hit with everyone...especially Huddy.

Mr. Branson gave Jovi an I-Pood Shirt, ha ha. So funny!
The Motley Crue. Talk about the wrong stuff. Branson, Ryan, Frank, Ben, and Adam.

Happily roaming Oma's house after all of our guest had left. She had a great day, and so did Mommy and Daddy. We're so lucky to have such great friends and family that care about us & our little love bug so much. Thanks for celebrating with us everyone! We love yall.
Jovi sitting with Huelo and Chloe. Time to relax.
Giving Oma thank you's for her awesome party. Oma is super cool!
Whooopf! I'm pooped now. That was probably the longest blog entry ever. Hope you enjoyed, and for those of you that couldn't make it - we missed ya. Hope this made you feel like you were there.
She's such a little lady, HA HA!
