Ethan Came, Saw, and Conquered!

Ethan had his birthday party last Friday night. Yes, I know...he is only 1 and he won't remember it, but it is fun to get together with friends and family to celebrate this milestone in our family. Because I come from a long line of women who truly know how to throw a party, I will admit we went a bit overboard! But, we had a blast doing it! Here are just a few shots from the party!


Yes, this is the spread that we had for food. It never is a party without TONS of food to eat! It was delicious, though!


Ethan surprised me. He actually enjoyed opening his presents. (Okay, as far as a 1 year old can focus!) He was thrilled about his new car and clothes!


Ain't this just a beauty?! No, I didn't make it. But, it was WELL worth the money! We have been enjoying this birthday cake all weekend long!


He wasn't quite sure if it was okay to put his fingers in the cake. We had to first show him how it was done. But, don't let him fool you...he went to town on it for a bit!


This is the aftermath of the cake-fest! What a face! Luckily, I have already washed the outfit, and all the food coloring came out successfully. Thank heavens for Spray and Wash!

Thanks to all those that came to celebrate with us! We are so grateful to have good friends and loving family to celebrate these special moments. Even if they are more for the parents than the kids!
