Birthday Fun when Leo Turned One!





Leo's first birthday party was a blast! Thank you to all of our friends and family for making his day so special. The party was going to be water themed, but since June 2nd ended up being pretty chilly (the only cold day over the past two months) we weren't able to have our water games; however, we had a wonderful time talking and spending the day with our loved ones. Leo enjoyed every minute of it. Here are some photos with captions from his birthday party.

This was an interesting project...I started it at 1:00 and people were supposed to get to the party at 2:00. My mom and I worked on it for about 15 minutes, and did not enjoy it at all, lol. We decided to put my brother and Karan (my mother-in-law) to work & they were much better at it! In case you can't tell (haha) it is supposed to be water...The wind was horrible so it kept blowing all over the place; hence, the crazy tape.

  4. Yay!! Finally got my birthday pictures! Looks like an awesome party, the part about you and Mom not liking to do the water decoration cracked me up, it reminded me of us decorating for Grandmas b-day haha!!! The cake and smash cake reminded me of Johanna's did you get it from Target? Everything looked awesome and I love your sea in a bottle craft, how cool! How awesome all of those people got to come. Love you guys!
