July 30th was Mason's first birthday! My parents, and Angela came into town, plus everyone else who already lives here. On Wednesday we woke up and my mom made us
pancakes for Mason's birthday, and he opened a few presents.
We hung out during the day - went out to pizza - and then headed over to my cousin Jennifer's house to celebrate with cake and ice cream. Mason and Jennifer have the same birthday so we brought a cake from cold stone and sang happy birthday to the both of them!
Since Steve is out of commission from his foot surgery - he got out of the house and yard work for the party! My parents worked very hard at helping us get our home in shape for Mason's birthday party! Like always they are willing to jump right in and help us with whatever we need. Thank you for helping us this week - and making Mason's birthday that much more special... Thank you to Angela for making the cupcakes for the party and making Mason's very first birthday cake - they turned out great. Garrett and Amy thank you for helping us around the house - cleaning up after the party - making the fruit - and just all that you do for Mason!
Mason's party was a success with about 30 family members - we celebrated at our house - outside with tables, chairs, and canopies to keep out of the sun. We served lunch, played a game "who knows Mason the best," had cake and ice cream, watched a video montage of Mason's first year, and opened many wonderful gifts - thank you everyone!

Although it was a lot of work, it was SOOOOO worth it!! Mason's birthday party was so much fun and I loved being with the entire family! Also, those cupcakes were amazing if I do say so myself. : )
