Brecken's 1st Birthday Party I

 

We had a great time at the first of Brecken's first birthday parties. In attendance were Grandma Bonni, Grandpa Clark, Uncle Ryan, Aunt Anne, Julia, Lauren, Great Aunt Vicki, Great Aunt Rocko, and Ali. She was pretty tired by the time we got to cake and pretty messy by the time she got done, so she went straight to an outfit change and nap. Thanks to those who shared her special day with her! (Jim was sad that there were no pictures of him, so we will be sure to get lots at her next party...I also wanted to get a family picture and we never got that!)

The rest of her actual birthday (Saturday) was spent running errands, cleaning, and hanging out with Grandma Bonni who came early to help us get ready...thank you so much! We also got to do a video call with Grandpa Steve and Nanna Celeste and Grandpa Darrell and Grandma Roberta stopped by to say hi on their way home from a wine event in Ames. So she got to "see" all her grandparents on her birthday...how neat! That night we went out for pizza at Red Rossa with Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Ryan, Aunt Anne, Julia and Lauren. The kids were WILD!!

On Tuesday, we made mini cupcakes and took them to daycare. The "pink" frosting turned out great Grandma Roberta...thanks!

One more celebration to go and then I can be sad that it's over! ;)
