Well it's a good thing we didnt plan a huge party at our tiny home complete with outdoor activities. Who knew a freak snow storm would assault the northeast the day before Izzy's birthday. The storm that dumped heavy snow onto trees, already battered by a hurricane but still with leaves, that consquently came crashing down on power lines and crippling the northeast. I thank God that we had electricity, it's 10 days later and my sister's power just restored.
Our small gathering of immediate family members and very close friends, (we're talking bridesmaids/groomsmans from our wedding and the grandparents and aunts and uncle) was quiet and just right for our shy little Izzy. I was a little nervous that all eyes on her would lead to a very bashful and self-conscious 1 year old. The familiar atmosphere at home and the friendly faces certainly helped. By naptime she had her fill of food, cake and presents. I'm really glad that I didn't go overboard like I have a tendancy to do. Instead the party was just right for Izzy.
