Colin's 1st Birthday Party

Relaxing with Grandma and all of the Cardinals stuff from them and Uncle Jason's family!

He wouldn't let go of the balloon string - even while eating his cake!

Playing with cousins Bella and Addison

We were blessed to have both of our families come to celebrate for Colin's birthday party on the 29th. My mom and dad were here and Rodney's mom, dad, and sister and family came down. Rodney's best friend Mike even came! A few close friends from here joined us as well. So much fun! I made Colin's cake and we had a simple BBQ at home. He had a lot of fun opening presents this time (even though tissue paper and wrapping was still a huge draw) and loved playing with his cousins. Oh, and balloons. He shrieks at balloons! We practiced with cake before his birthday so his gagging on a new food wouldn't be an issue. He had no problem gobbling down his piece! I think he had a great time and we'll remember it for sure!
