Britton's Birthday Party


Britton's 1st birthday party was so chaotic much fun! We had lots of family in town and a few friends over to celebrate Britton's big day.


Yep, he's one!


The smash cake (that didn't get so smashed).


Britton and his friends -- Chapel, Weaver, Kathleen & Alexandra.


Britton with the girls & looking a little apprehensive.


Chapel was there to talk him into digging into his cake.


But, I think he's going to be like his Daddy and not like getting messy!


A glimpse of the present-opening fun.




The paparazzi onlookers.




Favors -- one-year-olds can't have candy, so they got BandAids. ;o)


Elmo Live was a hit. All the babies tuned right in when Elmo started talking.


The only family picture we got of the day -- and the little guy was not having it.


Danny & Weaver.


Britton with his new froggie backpack.


One of the very special parts of his day was Wanda, the NICU nurse who coded him at birth, stopped by in the morning to drop off a letter she had written for Britton to open one day. She told him all about the day he was born and reminds him what a miracle he is. What a treasure?!


She also brought a gift and Britton had fun trying to get into it ... and just showed off for her in general by crawling around, pulling up, jabbering, and flirting!


Hanging with Aunt Danica after the party. It was a long (but fun) day!

Had so much fun at the party! You were a great hostess. I think I have a few good pictures of you, Danny, and Britton from that day. I'll try and send them to you once I get my new camera stuff loaded to my computer. Hope Britton likes his new Captain's Ark! Haha
