Carson's 1st Birthday Party

Wow, what a celebration! Carson's first birthday party was exactly what I envisioned it to be. Most of you know that I love to throw parties and events, and at times go a little overboard, but this was soooo much fun!!! Carson had an absolute blast. We really appreciate everyone that was there to celebrate this very special day with us!!! We were so excited that all of the Grandparents were there with us and Brian's sister also made an impromptu visit from Lubbock...we were so excited to have her there.
Carson's party was none other than a Monkey theme for our little Monkey!!! This was Carson's own cake. How fun it was too see him dig into it (see below).
We enjoyed a sunny spring afternoon in the backyard with Burgers, Brawts & Beer. Can't get much better!

For some reason, Carson is always attracted to beer bottles. Hmm...hope this isn't a look into the future.
Opening the gifts was so much fun. I think Carson was a bit overwhelmed by it all. At this time he was pretty warn out, but he was such a trooper. Luke (our dog) was in the middle of it all...like usual. Just one of the kiddos :-)

Carson LOVED his four wheeler from Pepaw and Memaw. He even tried to get on it before it was out of the box.

Out of the box is much better!

Carson loved Memaw's card - it was a musical card that played music each time it was opened. He kept opening and closing the card and dancing to the music! He is quite a dancer.


Time for CAKE!!! My favorite part.
Carson wasn't quite sure what to do with it. But once he figured it out, there was no stopping him. I had to take it away from him after a while because he kept eating and eating and eating....


Carson, Brian, and I would like to thank each and every one of you for blessing our lives with your love and friendship. It has been quite a year and quite a ride. We look forward to making many more memories with you in the future. We love you!!!
