Hana's First Birthday Party

Yesterday we had Hana's birthday party!  Although I know she won't remember it, she had a GREAT time!  Well, since I took over 250 pictures, she will have a pretty good idea!!  :-)  We had about 50 or 60 people over, with about 15 of those being kids. 

After everyone had something to eat, most of the kids went to the art studio and made ornaments, painting or colored in coloring books.  After everyone finished their projects, we all went back downstairs to sing "Happy Birthday!" to Hana (she LOVED it!) and to eat cake and ice cream.  Once everyone had enough sugar, several of the kids went down to have a chance to "whack" the pinata!  On the 4th hit, Audrey was able to break it open and the kids all grabbed handfuls of candy!   Finally, we helped Hana open her presents - all of which she loved!!! 

Many people left around this time, but others stayed to eat more and do more art projects!  We actually had many new arrivals throughout the afternoon and evening, making the party last nearly 12 hours!!!  Hana, of course, went to bed at her normal time, no doubt having sweet dreams about all the fun she had and cake and ice cream she ate!
