Big Birthday Excitment!!!

Hailey is officially 1 today, yes, 1!! I cannot believe how fast a year has gone, and yet I wouldn't change a thing! This week has been super super busy, but I'll run a quick recap and include some pictures . . . Monday came the arrival of Nonni, Papa, Gigi (Great Grandma) Betty and Great Papa Neil . . . phew, that's a lot of people (not to mention Abbey and Lilly the Yorkies!) Hailey was excited to have so many people around, especially since GiGi and Papa Neil came all the way from Scotland! I had an exam Monday morning, and am happy to report I aced it -- 102% :)
Tuesday I spent at work, boooo, while the family stayed in with Hailey. Tuesday evening Aunt Lisa arrived from Maryland and the influx of family finally came to a halt. Good thing too as I have run out of beds, couches and air mattresses!!!
This evening will be the big Luau birthday party, we have lots of friends coming over and have been preparing all day!! I will post pictures as soon as I can this evening since we will be heading to Nashville first thing Friday morning to spend a long weekend there with everyone before they all leave . . . talk about a busy birthday week for Hailey Bug!!!
