Kenton's 1st Birthday Party

I used my dad's camera to take pictures at Kenton's birthday party and I finally got them onto my computer! On January 28th we had Kenton's 1st Birthday party:)!

It was at TJ's parent's church auxiliary gym, which is where we did Sophia's 1st birthday party too. Because it was his 1st we wanted to invite all our family and some friends, so therefore we needed space, especially for kids to run around.
The theme was, "Come have a "BALL!" Kenton is in love with balls, so the theme was easy to come up with. Cupcakes are so much easier than cake, so my cricuit and I had some fun. Notice we have all the balls except soccer, hehe (TJ's not a fan). I did make Kenton a 3 layer mini cake in the middle.

Instead of party bags, we gave an outside bouncy ball to all the kids!

1 week before his birthday he started walking so he had to show off his skills.

We had a football toss game,

And blow up bowling,

And mini golf,

And finally, Kenton's favorite...A BALL PIT!

Kenton was in heaven and these balls were thrown in and out of the pit the whole party.

Kenton's cousin Quincy loved it too.

Kenton's favorite is also lasagna so that's what we had for lunch with Caesar salad and garlic bread.

After playing and eating was present time. TJ opened presents with him and kept the pace going so Kenton would not lose interest. I had to go through things afterwards because it happened so fast, haha. He was spoiled like always. Thanks family and friends:)

After presents was CAKE! He wasn't too sure about the candle. We didn't really practice blowing it out before so he just wanted to touch it.

I thought he would totally dive in (I was hoping because Sophia was so clean with hers), but he didn't go too crazy. The top baseball layer was weird to him (texture), so I took it off and that's when he explored a little more.

One of my friend's son was clever and made this talking bubble for him! Isnt' that cute?!:)

ALL DONE!

Kenton checked out some of his new toys as we cleaned up!

We sure did have a "ball!" Kenton was happy during his whole party and passed out the second he got in the car to go home. Can't believe my baby is 1! This is such a fun and busy stage with lots of exploring! We love our boy!:)
