Sunday was Austin's 1st birthday! What a wonderful day we had! Here's the birthday boy when I went to get him out of bed...
We had the BEST birthday party for Austin. The theme (thank you, Cindy) was, "Rookie of the Year." We requested for everyone to wear their favorite team shirt. We had all concession stand food. We had hot dogs, nachos, and frito pies. My friend, Maria, made his cake. CUTE!
And here's his smash cake. The other side says Rookie of the Year.
Kristi brought the baseball and football strawberries. How cute are these?!? Thank you Pinterest!
We had a great turnout for his party! We gathered everyone in the living room to watch a video of Austin's rookie season.
Yeah, he's a VERY loved little boy!
Mom and Dad gave Austin this cute little toy. He likes it!
This is Austin with his smash cake. The smash cake was a complete dud with him. He sat and looked at it. I put his hands in it and he looked at me like I had lost my mind. He did suck the cake off his fingers, but he never voluntarily touched the cake. He loved every bite of it...while I fed it to him from a spoon! I bet we get a better response next year!
We gave him this super cute car! It is sooo fun. Right now we can operate it with a remote control. Later on we can switch it to where he can operate it from the car.
Jason, Jennifer, and Bryson all came over from Lubbock to celebrate with us. So glad they made it!
Mom and Dad sporting their teams!
Austin with his Poppa. Austin's birthday was also Sam and Joyce's 45th wedding anniversary! We had a cake for that too!
Austin's birthday sign...we'll save it and use it each year.
After we were done eating and unwrapping presents we took Austin's car outside for a spin.
Right now it goes a little too fast for him on the sidewalk and jerks him. We put it on the grass and let him ride it in it. I didn't really think he liked it much, but then the battery died and the car quit going. Austin started crying when it stopped!
We had soooo much fun celebrating his birthday! I love my boys!
Austin sitting in his new chair from Mimi and Papa. It says Austin on the back of it.
I screwed up! I took this great idea from Cindy. I made a pennant for each kid at the party and put them on the fireplace. I forgot to take a picture of it before people started leaving and taking their pennants. Darn it!
We wanted to take Austin's picture in his new chair with the balloons. He had enough of the pictures and wasn't cooperative for this one.
Kristi and Jeff gave him the ball pit. He REALLY like its. He likes small places, so he likes crawling in there to play.
We truly had the best day with Austin for his birthday. It felt a little like when we got married with how hectic things were when we were getting ready for the party. The party couldn't have gone better. We are SO thankful to all of our family and friends for coming to celebrate Austin's special day.
