Happy Birthday Big Boy!

Ryder turned 1 on the 25th! We can't believe it's already been a year since he came into our lives. We had his party on Saturday in the barn, and he had a BLAST!

The Setup: We spiced up the barn using standard baby blue decor but we also personalized it with a lot of pictures of Ryder. I also hung a curtain rod displaying layouts of some of his accomplishments.




We had all the food setup in this alcove. To personalize it, I put snapshots of Ryder the day he was born with everyone holding him who came to the hospital. Everyone loved seeing themselves holding him as a little guy!


His seat was the center of the show! Disregard the gross barn door! Eek!

Mr. Man in his birthday outfit!

This was when he first entered the barn. He just stood there taking it all in. All the people, the balloons, the decorations...he didn't know what to think!
The cake table! Since he loves duckies, we decided to do a ducky theme for his cake. You can see they made a baby cake to match so he could have his very own!



He LOVED it! We got him strawberry because on his birthday we gave him a chocolate cupcake and he tasted it and threw it on the ground! The strawberry was an absolute hit!

Roo and his PawPaw. Awwwww!
It was such a fun day...not to mention all the prezzies he received! Thanks everyone for coming! And we missed those of you who couldn't make it. :)
