Charlie's First Birthday Party


Our home this past week was filled with cooking, cleaning and cake decorating! All in prep for a birthday party to celebrate the life of our lil' Charlie bear.

Both Jimmy and I love having people over... so what is better than an occasion to do so than a first birthday party! We are so thankful for our family and our friends who were able to make it and all those who care so much for us by loving our son.

Below are a few snapshots of the day's activities: 


Bears for our Charlie "Bear"
Sidenote: Cake decorating is not for the faint-hearted...not sure how many more birthday's I'll attempt it!


Charlie didn't devour his cake as I would have thought...


He actually preferred his gluten-free cupcakes over the chocolate cake. This mama ain't complaining! 

Jim singing his "special" birthday song to Charlie. 


Uncle Brian being an all-star uncle by manufacturing a very complicated ATV ride. 

The boys testing out the new rides!

And, I think we may need another garage for all of the new vehicles! 
  


Charlie finishes his party but getting rid of his "party in back"... good bye mullet, hello handsome!
