Mason's SECOND First Birthday Party

Mason's "official" birthday party was Monday of Memorial Day.  We knew we didn't want to make his birthday a big deal - just a reason to get the family together.  So we decided to meet Addison & Grace over at the pool for an hour, and then have family over to our house for late lunch, cake, beer & wine. 

As usual, the pool was a big hit!  It was a gorgeous day.






They're kind of hard to see, but there are little gators all over his shorts!

We then moved the party back to our house for food/drinks.  It was a really nice, relaxing time just hanging out with family!

This is Mason's nanny, Kelly and her adorable little sister Karlie, who loves to come play with Mason!



Sorry Gigi, I cut your head off - too busy trying to get the cute shirt

After a while of hanging out with everyone it was time for more presents!






And then, last but certainly not least, cake time!  This time we got a little fancy, with an adorable gator cupcake cake for the guests, and a matching mini-cake for Mason!


He was a little confused at first, but once I showed him that the cake was edible, he figured it all out.  The video was too long so I cut it in half to post:

Mason, share with mama!



I'm cracking up that this is the only family shot I have on my camera.  Hi Tristan!  Oh well, maybe mom has a better one on her camera.

Mason went straight into the tub and down for a nap after all the excitement.  Such a great day, we were so happy to have everyone there with us!
Ok, no more birthday posts till next year!
