Owen's First Birthday Party

  We had Owen's first birthday party on Friday night at our house.  We kept it simple with just family, but Owen did fabulous and we all had fun.  We had barbeque and sides and of course cake for dessert! :)  Owen loved his gifts, but he especially loved playing in the bags, tissue paper, and the balloons!  Enjoy these pics from our baby's first birthday party!   Warning:  There are a lot of pics, but hey... you only celebrate your first birthday once! :)

Owen LOVED the balloons and kept pointing at them in every picture! :)

We will be celebrating Jesse's first birthday in just six weeks!

Of course Jesse and Owen are the hit (center of everyone's attention) at every party!

Owen and his soccer ball!

The last gift "for Owen" was mighty big!  I asked Jim to open it because... surprise... it really was a gift for Jim!

Everyone wanted Daddy to open it...well it turned out that Daddy got his birthday/Christmas present from the entire family this night as well... no more watching his good ole' college tv. :)

At first Owen was unsure...

Then more and more fingers got involved...

He liked the icing!

Happy Birthday sweet boy!
