Gram's First Birthday Party!!



Oh. My. Gosh. Our little baby Gram is turning ONE! He is the most beautiful, perfect, crazy and hilarious little critter we could ever ask for. This last year has been incredible, filled with more laughs and joy anyone could even dream of. I highly suggest any married couple to jump on the bandwagon and pop them babies out! They make everyday greater than the last. I know our little boy sure does!

So, it's not everyday your first born little prince turns one! So naturally, we had to invite our friends and family to come celebrate this perfect man's big day. I started looking for party themes about a month ago. Hey, I wanted the party to scream, "Gram!" Haha. After narrowing it down to "bugs and dirt", we had to pick out decorations, plan out the food, and send out invites to our guests. All this week and half of last week I spent making trips to several stores to find the right things we needed for our get together. Who knew the work it took to throw a baby's party?? Haha.

We had hamburgers and hotdogs that Gav grilled up for everyone. We had fruit, macarons and "worm pasta" along with all mud pies, dirt cake and camoflauge cupcakes I made. After hanging out and grubbin' (as Gav always says) we all headed over to sing "Happy Birthday" to Mr. Gram! He was standing with everyone circled around him singing and oh wow did he love the attention. The look on his face was priceless, like... "Is everyone singing for me?!?" He loved it. After we helped him blow out the candle, he had to do the traditional thing and make a mess of his cake! He mostly just played with a worm he picked off until I stuck both his hands in the cake. Haha. Now on to presents!! Our friends and family spoiled him with some great things like a red wagon, play guitar, basketball hoop, play drums, books, high-top sneakers and a baby Lego wagon. Thank you all for coming and bringing some seriously awesome gifts! :)

Loved these photos from Gram’s birthday celebrations. The party looks well decorated and everyone seems to be enjoying it. The weather was nice and that was a good thing. We also celebrated our daughter’s first birthday a few days ago, with a grand party at one of the amazing rental spaces for parties.
