Will's First Birthday!

More birthday party pictures from a proud mommy!

Will loved the dirt pile and all of the trucks. At one point, he even decided to "sample" some of the dirt. He actually didn't seem to mind the taste but looked confused when everyone else made a big deal of it.
Madeline and her best friend, Haley worked hard in the dirt also.
July birthdays make for very HOT parties, so we also provided a water play station with a wading pool and water table away from the dirt pile. Some of the kids saw it first and never made it to the dirt pile. I think a few of the adults would have loved to jump in too.
For those poor hot friends and relatives, we set up a gazebo in my parent's courtyard with a fan and cold drinks. We found Will's godparents, John and Lindsey, visiting with Great-Mema under the nice shade.
My youngest cousins, Paige and Katie, found the party favor basket under the gazebo and modeled the hats for the camera. Watch out Handy Manny and Bob the Builder!

What an awesome party! Looks like you had all the bases covered. Wish we could have made it, but we were reunion-ing. Happy Brithday, Will! Can't wait to get his and Setler's picture in their matching football polos!
