1st birthday tailgate

beckett is 1!

{another post - the party post}

a little behind on my posting...

we had a great time partying with family and friends

beckett's actually birthday was on friday, oct.14th but his party wasn't until sunday. so we had a simple cupcake celebration just the 4 of us. elle loved picking out a gift for beckett and was so excited to have him open it.

josh had fun picking out his little boy's gift...his first workbench

{and of course the box was more fun than the gift}

fall birthdays are great and even better for a boy and dad who LOVE football

it was so much fun putting all the details together and finding little ways to make it cute, even though for a boy it should be cool. we are so thankful for the friends that have invested in our life and love our kids. and our family, what can we say...they're the best! it's so fun to get all 9 cousins together and watch how they play together, teach one another and really enjoy spending time with each other. i'm glad that ellington and beckett have the chance to really know their cousins and build friendships with them.

so there it is, beckett's 1st birthday down...now onto planning ellington's 3rd ballerina party.
