1st Birthday Party

The party went well for the girls. My mom counted 35 guests in attendance in our little house. The air conditioner was working over time and the house was very warm. It was around 100 degrees outside and 85 in our house! The girls loved eating the cake but Lizzie got sick and threw up all her cake. She was acting sickly the rest of the day and was laying down when we opened presents. Gracie enjoyed opening the gifts, but we think she enjoyed the paper as well as the gifts.

The girls did get to open their mommy and daddy present. We didn't have enough wrapping paper so we only wrapped part of the gift. We figured they didn't care any way and the paper was the most fun. Below are pictures from their actual birthday and the party.

What is this? We have never seen anything like this.
