Kiptyn's Birthday Party

Kiptyn's 1st birthday fell on a Friday.  We were heading out of town for the weekend for one of Josh's soccer tournaments so we decided to try to be wild and crazy and have his party on his actual birthday.  We had done all this prep work (big shout out thanks to Pinterest) ahead of time for the party.  Well the night before the big day became a little hectic.  While during the normal chaotic routine of trying to get the boys ready for bed ended up in a 9:30pm run to the ER.  Jackson had a pair of scissors (without asking, BIG NO-NO) in his hand that Kip had thought it was a good idea to swat at (not the smartest move Kip).  After gobs of paper towels we decided to run to the doc.  And by run,...I mean I totally pulled a Brittney Spears and had him in my lap in the front seat.  Please think before you judge...You probably wouldn't put your 364 day old child in his car seat under that trauma either.  Kip was fine in the car even giggling as Jackson was scared and worried for his little brother.  Lewis Gale did an awesome job and had his pinkie glued perfecto within 45 minutes of us leaving our home to get there.  We were just in time to get home and my amazing husband to make 48 cupcakes by himself.  Shout out to Mr. Crocker himself!  Anyway, the next morning I took a quick break at work and ran up to the house to enjoy Kiptyn's birthday breakfast with nothing better than donut holes!  Later that evening we spent a couple hours at Ma and Daddy's house celebrating our precious little one.  We are so incredibly overjoyed not only to have celebrated his birthday with our family but also our sweet friends.  We are one blessed family!  We thank you and love you all.

Had to have donut holes for breakfast!



Kiptyn's first year


Found the Sock monkey paper decorations/invitations from Etsy.  Just bought the file and printed myself.  The cupcakes I found on Pinterest.  Thought they were super cute.

My bad,...I assumed since Jackson didn't get into his cake, Kiptyn wouldn't.  I should know by now all kids are different.  Should have stripped him down to his diaper. 








Loves his couch from Mal & Pal.





My hot Mommas!














Easily the most people we've had in that pool! :)





I adore this picture.


Silly boys!
