Happy Happy Birthday!

Today was my nephew, Dawson's, 1st birthday! Can't believe how fast that year went! We enjoyed the day with mostly family and our dear friend, Joy. Played outside a bit and of course, enjoyed some delicious cake!

Our friend, Joy, was a wiz with the balloon animals/flowers/fruit...just about anything you wanted! The kids loved it.....
...and so did Dave by the looks of it. Joy's "fruit bowl" creation.

What would a first birthday be without a picture of the special boy digging into his cake! Happy birthday buddy! We love you!!
