HAPPY BIRTHDAY (S)

Well, here it is... this is it!!!! Reagan is one today!!! and a whole year has passed in the blink of an eye. As we celebrate this most amazing day, it is so fun to look back over the year, and "where" his Mom and Dad were a year ago.. and the fact that both Deb and I had the amazing privilege of being there to see his entrance into the world..... how grand is life?????






His "theme" .... monsters!!! but the cute kind, and I can't believe that Kassy's friend Amanda went to all that trouble for the cute monster cake ... that is only to be smashed!!!!! 




A family photo......















and my dear little grands together......


And Debbie, who I brought along for the "experience" of a children's party... but she was, of course, wonderful and a hit herself. Thought that maybe a "sit/stay" in the ball pool would be tough... she made it look easy!!!!

I think that if marriages were still "planned" this would be Reagan's future wife. But for now, we'll go with a close friendship... little Scarlet... daughter of Kassy's friend Amanda (and not the cake Amanda!!!)
Family and friends turned out for the big event... lots of wonderful food, conversation and the joy of the celebration.....
Diana, Reagan and Kassy.... (Diana is a birthing nurse and was right at Kassy's side the whole time when Reagan was on his way. She was such a huge help to Kass-- and also coached Sadie when Abbie was born...) so nice when childhood friendships last forever....
Reagan wasn't so sure at first what to do about this whole cake idea....
but then, he got it.... and had a grand time doing the "smash"......
After a bit of clean up, it was time for the other cake... which actually was two other cakes... because we celebrated Sadie's birthday as well.... (her sort of birthday, since February had no 29 this year!!!).....
Presents!!!!!
and could these three really stay out of trouble???? not likely......












Deb loves little Reagan, and when he had sometime to play on the floor with some of his new things, she was right there to watch over him. She is such a good girl......



and so, we're off again, a whole new year, a whole new time for growing, discoveries, and watching this precious little boy becoming the person that he is meant to be...


Happy #1..........
