I can't believe out sweet boy is 1! This year has really just flown by! Well, the last 9 months at least, the first 3 were a little rough:) But well worth every meltdown, sleepless night and glass of wine:) We had a little party for our Bear on his actual birthday, November 19th, then we had a bigger one on Saturday the 21st. All of his friends were there, along with their parents of course:) We are so fortunate to have such wonderful friends! My sister let us borrow her bounce house and slide- we set up the slide to go into a wading pool that was filled with balls- such a hit! The theme of Michael's party was Teddy Bear Picnic, since we call him Bear. I had such a fun time putting it all together, and thanks to my friend Christina, she put together the cutest invitations and party ideas- I could not have done anything without her! She is such a creative person! If you need invitations or announcements, you should check her out:)
We are headed to Atlanta on Wednesday for Thanksgiving. We will be staying with Geoff's brother Steve and his wife Lorraine while we are there- Geoff's sister Merrie just had their 3rd girl, Kacie, so they have a FULL House! I cannot wait to meet Miss Kacie and visit with our other nieces Presley and Hannah Blanche- we have so many things to be Thankful for this Thanksgiving!
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and travels safely to their family celebrations!
I am sure I will update once we get home from Atlanta next Sunday!
Take care!
Kate
Also, my good friend Claricia made Michael's Birthday Cake- the best cake I have ever had! The bottom was chocolate with orange cream filling, the bear and picnic basket were rice crispie treats with frosting and the present was Michael's smash cake, banana cake with banana cream filling (since the Bear loves him some banana)- It was all absolutely worth every calorie:)
