January 30, 2010 - Julianna Turns 1!

When I hear people talking about milestone birthdays, I tend to think in terms of 16, 21, 30, etc... However, since I've become an aunt, there's nothing more special than a baby's 1st birthday. My niece, Julianna, just turned 1 and in typical family fashion, my sister and brother-in-law threw her a birthday party. I initially thought I wasn't going to be able to make it, but ask anyone who knows me...I love parties! I left work at 5pm on Friday and arrived at my final destination bright and early at 5am after 12 hours driving through three states. It was all worth it! Julianna was dressed in her birthday finest and had a ball eating her cake and opening presents.
