The M&M Johnson Family: Caleb's 1st Birthday Party!

On Sunday April 28th we hosted Caleb's 1st birthday party! The theme was Backyardigans... Caleb's favorite TV show (Mostly he just likes the theme song.) . Party guests began arriving around noon, and just before 1:00 we enjoyed a lunch of lasagna, lettuce salad, french bread, and fruit. The fruit was served out of a watermelon carved into the shape of the character Pablo from the Backyardigans (Thanks Grandma Marjean!).

We made cupcakes and a Tyrone shaped "smash" cupcake for Caleb. We sang "Happy Birthday," but the candle wouldn't light because we were outside in the wind so we by passed that step. We were nervous Caleb wouldn't want to try the cake, but he dug right in after a little taste! Once we were done with cupcakes, we had some more snacks and then opened presents outside! Caleb was so spoiled, and he has already enjoyed playing, reading, and wearing many of his presents. Thank you to everyone who came to share in Caleb's 1st Birthday! It was a wonderful day full of amazing memories!
