Happy 1st Birthday Simon!

We celebrated Simon's first birthday on Sunday with a cowboy party and a bounce house, and today he is celebrating his "real birthday" in bed with croup and a round of steriod injections. Poor guy! At least he doesn't really have any concept of birthdays yet, because no one wants to spend their birthday sick and tired. His doctor said it's going around, and he was actually the third patient of the day to have it (and it was only 10:00 am!).

Good thing we had a ton of fun on Sunday! Thanks so much to everyone who came out to help us celebrate! We appreciate that so many people made the drive up here to party with us, and we loved sharing the day with all of you! XOXO

These guys wore their mustaches ALL day long!

The girls loved the mustaches as much as the boys!

Everyone was loving the big bounce house! Granddad even captured this fun mid-leap shot of Sawyer!

(The only kiddo who didn't love the bounce house was the birthday boy!)

He loves his cousin Zane though!

Cake time! Hmmmm...not really so sure what to do with this.

The first tentative taste test

Hey! This stuff is pretty yummy!

Oh yeaaaah, VERY yummy! At this point I was wondering if red velvet was the most reasonable choice of cakes for the occasion. Oh well!

Everyone enjoyed rootbeer floats with their cupcakes

All cleaned up and ready for more playtime in the garden.

Happy birthday, Simon! We love you SO very much! ♥
