| The Cake!! |
So yesterday we celebrated with friends and family. It was a great day, minus the weather not being like I wanted, but we had a wonderful time. Yesterday morning as I got up and was running errands trying to get all the last minutes things I started feeling a little emotional. I think it was finally hitting me that my baby is 1. It is still so hard to believe. It has been an AMAZING year. I started thinking about what I should say at the party and that is when I really felt the emotions coming on. At the party was friends and family, but the friends are more like family. Everyone that we invited are dear friends who had a big impact on us as we were trying to have Cole. It was there love, support, prayers, ears to listen and arms to hug that helped us to have our miracle. We missed some of our family, but understand they had other obligations. They were missed for sure. Casey and I were blessed with an amazing family. I feel so blessed to know that Cole has such great family members and role models in his life.

The party was at Uncle Lincoln and Aunt Pam's house. They were the gracious host. I could not have done everything without everyone's help yesterday. I was so excited to see everything come together. We had chick-fil-a chicken nuggets, pasta salad (made my Aunt T), fruit kabobs, spinach dip (made my aunt Pam), pretzel rods dipped in white chocolate with blue sprinkles, m&m, and cake!!! The cake was made my my childhood friend, Katy Pat. She did an amazing job. We had a little photo session area where we had frames, Dr. Seuss hats and stuffed animals for everyone to take a picture. They turned out really cute! We had a fun day. Looking forward to another wonderful year!!!
