What a lucky little boy! We had such a wonderful time at Micah's first birthday party. It was extremely windy that day so we had to change our plans from outside to inside.
The Birthday Boy
It was a great time spend in fellowship and fun. Micah is indeed a very well-loved boy. We started out the party just chatting and enjoying company and watching the kids play together. Matt and Eric were on the grill cooking up some yummy hotdogs and burgers. When they were finished we all enjoyed the barbeque food together. Micah definitely needed a nap before anything else, so he had a quick nap and was then ready to go again...
I also spent about 5 hours decorating and baking about 50 cupcakes as well as Micah's sugar-free birthday cake...that he hardly touched!
Safari Cupcakes
As far as the birthday cake, I really had a lot of expectations as to what Micah would do with the cake. He was definitely curious as to what it was but didn't want much to do with it. He first slapped it a few times and really didn't bring it to his mouth till we helped him. Then the taste really didn't impress him at all. We even spoon fed him a bite of chocoalte cupcake and he didn't like it! We handed him a celery stick and he went to town on it! I guess hes not really into sweets like his mommy.
No cake = celery stick :)
We are very blessed to have to many friends and family who were able to come to Micah's 1st Birthday! His Great Grandma Hill from Pheonix and Grandma Teichert from Chicago were able to come too! God is so good and we are so excited to see him continue to work in our lives as a family!!
