Ryder's 1st Birthday Party

Ahh the much awaited birthday party pictures!

Ryder helping Mommy set up for his big party!
He makes this face a lot lately... it's pretty goofy!
Welcome to our little man's 1st birthday party

Happy 1st Birthday Ryder... Loved this banner :)

The Birthday Cake
Ryder waiting for his cake... eyes wouldn't stop watering from the sunscreen/sun/exhaustion of the week we had already had....
Dakota and his mommy Nicole
Jack being as cute as ever!
Oh Papi! You are SO goofy!
Auntie Ally's head was too big for the little kid party hats

The Birthday Cake.... With Ryder's cake to do what he pleased with....
An attempt at a group shot of the kids
And one Dakota didn't get cut out of...
I'm the Birthday Boy!
Wasn't a huge fan of his cake... I think it had to do with his exhaustion...
I'll prove it to you in a later post :)
We decided to put the cake on the ground and let the kids play in it
The aftermath
Happy again with his paci and his bull-dozer
Papi letting Ryder splash around in the cooler of beer
Daddy comforting his little boy after a long long long day... and weekend!

I hate that we missed out! Thank you for all the great pics and I love love love all the details (favors, banner, hats, cake,etc). Makes me realize I need to get myself in gear for Connor's big day. Love how the bull dozer made it in many shots too! :) Hope the drive is going by fast and you can get settled/your little man back and RELAX!
