Caden's First Birthday Party

On Saturday, we had Caden's first birthday party! Jon's parents were so nice to let us use their home (since ours is the size of a bread box) and we hosted so many of our family and friends. We were blessed and overwhelmed at all the people who came to love on little Caden.
Caden had SO much fun and was seriously an angel the whole time. We were so relieved he was feeling better since he was sick the whole week before. He never got fussy, and just played played played with all his friends who were there. He tasted cake for the first time--both funfetti and chocolate, and was more intrigued by the texture on his hands then the taste. He barely tasted it and more played with it! It was pretty cute, and you could tell he was ready for the cake thing to be done so he could get down and keep playing!

It was SUCH a great day and while it was the biggest party I've ever thrown with lots of details and prep time, I am so glad we did it. It made some great memories and was so fun!

Here are some pics of the big day!

Jen, this looked like the perfect party for a one-year-old: kids, adults, food, and cupcakes! Caden looked like he was having a blast, and as usual, he is so adorable!
