Aiden's Birthday Party
Aiden’s first birthday party was on Saturday. The weather turned out to be agreeable, 75 degrees with slight clouds, so we put tents up in the backyard for the event. Predictably, we went with a Transformers theme, and Chrissy went all out on the party favors. Everything had Transformers on it: plates, tablecloths, napkins, streamers, and other decorations. After much searching, Chrissy even found a Transformers cake with a transformable Optimus Prime on it.
The best part about the cake was that it came with a smaller “smash” cake. This one had a single purpose: to be demolished by Aiden. We got lots of pictures of the sugary carnage, and Chip took some video for us (we’re going to try to get on YouTube soon). Aiden had blue and red icing all over his face and arms. I had to hose down the high chair afterwards.
A little over thirty of our closest friends and family came for the party, so Aiden had plenty of gifts to open. He was pretty spoiled. We tried to send him back in a huge “monster” gift bag, but he wasn’t too happy with that idea. Special thanks to everyone who brought something for Aiden! It was a great day and we’re happy that we could share it with you all.
