In case you can't tell, the theme was Fats Domino. Why? Well, because Andy LOVES dominos and well... he also likes food. ;) I made his cake out of 30 mini loaves of chocolate cake that were iced like little dominoes. It was quite cute if I may say so myself. It was fun for the kids to pick out which domino they wanted to eat. The kids also got to take home their very own domino sets as party favors. I made some extra chocolate ones for smash pictures and a special all blue domino in the very back corner for Daddy. It was a peace offering from his pink birthday cake last week. ;)
We had lots of balloons. The balloons were a big hit with ALL the kids. I joked I would just fill my car with balloons for my trip to Indiana. Or maybe I wasn't joking entirely...... Dang the chocking hazard of balloons. It could be such a great idea!
I had a photoshop lessen from Carolyn and she mentioned missing her little Logan's smash photos. So, I invited her back to celebrate with us. I made each of the boys their own smash cakes and both Carolyn and I took photos. Isn't Logan the cutest? Well... second to Andy.
I love this shot of Andy. He's so proud of himself and barely able to keep his balance with the excitement.
We had so many of our great friends join us. I feel so blessed to be surrounded with such wonderful families.
I think all the kids had a great time.
Andy didn't get to open any of his own presents. Why? Because there were five big sisters in attendance.
They even helped him make sure all the toys were working properly before they gave them to him. I'm so glad he's so easy going.
Diana brought her gift over later and I tried to let Andy have that one. He got it started, but had help towards the end.
He received many great presents. Do you see a common theme?
He received Tonka Trucks from each of our bible study families and the garage from Pete and Carol. I still can't believe no one got a duplicate. It's so cute. Do you think people were trying to make sure he got "boy toys" since dolls have taken over our play room? Thank you, everyone, for making it such a wonderful way to celebrate Sweet Sugar Andy's first year.
