Part 2: First Birthday Bash

We had a fun little BBQ with hot dogs, homemade chili(with most things out of Papa's garden), and yummy salad.

Love this picture of Liam and Izzy. They had so, so, so much fun together.

Then it was present time. The kids love that Addy's not old enough to care if they 'help' her open her gifts. Next year she may object a bit, but they had a lot of fun. :)

She got her own swing for the swingset from Mommy, Daddy and Liam.

After that was the big cake smash! Addy was very neat initially, then she discovered the real frosting and she loved it. She took her time and really enjoyed herself. Toward the end, she started clapping and laughing and showing us that she is "ONE!" What a sweetheart

It's amazing how fun it is to watch a one-year-old destroy her birthday cake. Everyone enjoys that.

I decided not to do cake for dessert and instead do caramel apples. This was a lot of fun. Everyone enjoyed dipping their apples and adding their own topppings. It was definitely a hit.

The kids had so much fun. Little Scott chased them around and they laughed and laughed. Addy LOVED her swing and was all smiles just swinging the evening away. It was a perfect evening and we're so thankful for all the wonderful people we have in our life to celebrate with us.

After all the fun, we threw all the kiddos in the bath and let Addy try out her adorable new towel from Titi and Uncle Shaawn:

Happy birthday, sweet angel. We love you!
