Its Par-tee time!!

For Dean's first birthday we channeled one of his daddy's favorite hobbies. Golf! Derek dreams of the day he can take Dean golfing in their matching sweater vests and argyle socks. I think the theme was very fitting for our little preppy golfer-in-the-making! We had lots of yummy food and thankfully the weather cooperated. The kids made visors outside with stickers and letters. They also enjoyed playing golf with the plastic clubs outside. I don't think we've ever had that many people in our house at one time. Thank you to everyone that came to celebrate our precious little one year old.

"For this child I have prayed." 1 Samuel 1:27

Dean,

We pray for you daily that you would grow up strong and healthy! We pray that you would know Jesus and follow him. We love watching you learn and grow and figure out new things. We are so proud of you and all of your accomplishments in just one year. You have given us the greatest joy in the world! We love you! God loves you! We are blessed.

Love, Mommy and Daddy



Derek made these invitations. He should go into business or something.

Mini cake for Dean


Bundt cake. Have you heard of Nothing Bundt Cakes? We love that place! Mom and I recreated it ourselves. Mom is very talented at making that icing look perfect!

Golf themed centerpieces


Food table - I love this mesh stuff that I added to the table! Its super cool!


I used more mesh on the mantel. This is my new favorite thing! I'm making a wreath out of it too that I'll blog about. I painted the sign and made a banner of Dean's pictures from each month he was born.


Evan is sporting his visor.


I have no idea why Dean is crying. He sure got a lot of gifts! He's riding on the little four wheeler Uncle Ryan gave him.


There's that sweet smile!
