Block Party

For Raegan's first birthday we threw a block party. It was a total hit.
The party table. Yes, I made that cake myself, and yes, Raegan got too many presents.
No block party is complete with out alphabet refrigerator magnets spelling the names of all in attendance (Mom = me and Jamie).

We had pizza (Raegan included).

Raegan and Sammy played with the balloons while the adults had pizza. (Isn't it cool how you can see Raegan's face through the balloon).

Time for presents. Raegan really wasn't much help, but I certainly enjoyed opening them all. Raegan did enjoy playing with them though, with Sammy's help.
Time for cake. Isn't it beautiful.
I made Raegan a block cake covered in purple frosting for her to destroy. She did destroy the cake, but it didn't make much of a mess. The frosting was too flaky. Oh well, this is still a great picture of our wonderful family.
Thanks to Blake and Courtney and Jamie and Sammy for coming to our party. And thanks to everyone for the awesome presents.

What a fun party! Sorry we couldn't make it:( We could tell you guys spent lots of time and effort into all the planning and executing. Raegan is a lucky little girl with great parents. Happy 1st Birthday Raegan. We love you very much! XOXO, Gramma and Grampa J, Aunties Ali and Emily.
