Mackston's 1st Birthday Party

Mackston turned one at the end of May but we held off with his party so that we could have an outdoor pool party.  The weather was perfect and there was lots of giggles and squeals from the kids. I think they had a good time.

Family arrived into town late Friday night, and we started Saturday with a trip to a local festival called Freedom Fest.  

 

 

 

 

 The kids had a blast on the rides.

 And then cooled off with Kona Ice drinks.

 

 We came back home for some naps and then it was party time. Mackston's birthday theme was Rookie of the Year (baseball).

 

 

 

 

 

 I put Mackston's hand print on a baseball when he was born because I knew his first birthday theme would be baseball. It's pretty amazing how much that little hand has grown in the past year.

 

 We had drinks for all ages and classic ballpark food.

 

 Sweet little birthday boy.

 He wasn't too sure about the birthday cake at first.  Then he grabbed some and put it in his mouth.

 

 

 

 

 

 And then he decided he was done with it.

 So into the pool he went for clean up.

 And of course there was a lot of swimming and outside fun.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Followed by some gift opening.

 

 

We ended the night watching fireworks (which were set off at Freedom Fest but are easily viable from our driveway).  His first birthday party was a blast.  Happy 1st birthday little man. We love you so much!!
