Dan's work's welcome Kat party

Dan's co-workers threw a Welcome Kat/First Birthday party for her tonight, complete with homemade ice cream cake. It was wonderful. Liza and Eli attended with us, and Eli slept through almost the entire thing. Kat was "on" entertaining her audience the whole time. She passed out in the car.

Some of these pics are blurry, which I'm not really happy about. Maybe time for a new camera? My apologies to anyone whose face is blurry. It seemed that there were few pictures that have no blurry faces. I'm sure it can't be operator error.....

At home this afternoon- Liza was taking pictures of Kat in her room and Ben was camped out at the door watching (no one was sure why, but it was really cute).
