Sunday afternoon we celebrated Jackson's first birthday. He was so good and entertaining! He definitely knew it was HIS party and he was suppose to be the center of attention.
It was an animal-themed party. I have been holding on to a Hannah Kate outfit I ordered back in the summer for him to wear. He was too cute! I am a little biased though.
My mom worked so hard on the cupcakes, smash cake, other decorative cakes, and the table setup. She is so talented! Everyone was amazed at it. THANKS SO MUCH
YETTI! WE LOVE YOU AND APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK!
She also made him a birthday b
ib. Thank goodness, because I had forgotten to get one!
Yetti also made lime
sherbet punch which Jackson highly enjoyed! Mimi (my
stepmother) and
Yetti feeding Jackson punch. By the way, a little side note...my mom and
stepmom get along GREAT which is
sooooo nice for all of us!
He wasn't sure what to do with his smash cake. He didn't eat much of it, but he sure ended up smashing it to pieces...
He got SO MANY great toys and gifts. Most of them were musical which he danced to. It is amazing how he can hear just a note or two and will start dancing. I guess he is gets it from his Mama! We sure know how to cut a rug on my side of the family! It makes me think about something a friend said this weekend. She says her mother always says "I just want my girls (she has 3) to find a man who will dance with them." I love that! Luckily I found one that loves to dance with me. I don't think he loves to dance, but he loves to dance with me. I got a good one! Jackson is definitely going to be a dancer.
Unfortunately I was so busy with him and the party, I didn't get to use my new camera that much.
Yetti and Papa gave me my birthday present early (right before the party)...a big new Nikon digital camera! I have a great small digital camera, but I always borrow my mom's Canon Rebel for really nice photos. I didn't ask for it, wasn't even on my list...BUT I am
soooooo excited about it and really wanted it! I didn't use it correctly all day. Many of the pictures were blurry. I didn't have the flash on, but the pictures are still pretty good. I didn't get to capture our house full of people. Here is Jackson and cousin Mary Grace. Then Jackson with
Cashion playing with all the new toys...
We had so much fun with him. He was a ham! I can't believe he is one!
