So Andrew turned one. We were going to have one big family party in Georgia due to my sis-in-law being due so close to Andrew's bday (actually her due date was A's bday). But my dad got sick and things progressed with my niece. So we didn't go. That weekend anyway. Eric's parents were able to come up for the weekend and then Saturday morning Eric's sis & family decided to drive down also. We then got the crazy idea... hey we were finally going to dedicate Andrew in a few weeks, but there's family here, let's do it tomorrow! We made the necessary phone call and got us in the line up for church the next morning.
Sunday after church we grilled out and I made a cake.

Even though we went with a Mickey Mouse theme, we had decided his "big" gift would be Thomas the train stuff. When we go to Barnes & Noble he will play with the train for as long as we would let him stand there. Plus we figured it was a good investment. Wasn't something he was going to grow out of by next summer.

After we did presents and the kiddos napped, we went for the cake.

Andrew wasn't quite sure what to do with it at first. He would stick his fingers in it, but didn't eat it until he realized there was stuff on his fingers that he didn't want there. But he did enjoy it.

Kathryn, Caleb & Esther also enjoyed the cake. And the Mickey Mouse table. If you notice next to Kathryn is a box of Handy Manny tools. Even though this was Andrew's present from Grandma & Grandpa, Kathryn has laid claim to them.

We had a great time at Andrew's first 1st birthday party. Look for party #2 soon. I just realized the pictures are still on the camera. oops!
