Karley's First B-day Party

I know this is a little late but better late then never. On March 22nd we celebrated Karley's 1st Birthday. Because we had been out of town for her Birthday and then daddy had to work the next weekend we had her party the day before Easter. It made for a great family get together with the cousins. It was so much fun to have an Easter/birthday party. Karley loved getting to eat the cake. She wasn't as messy as her brothers were with their first cakes but she sure got into it.

Before we had cake we had an Easter Egg Hunt. Karley collected those eggs and put them into her basket. She really loved this

Andrew (my brother Paul's son) counting his loot

Tatumn (Colby's brother's daughter) collecting eggs

Karley and Siena (my sister's daughter -only 30 days older) having a great time playing with the eggs

Before the egg hunt the kids decorated cookies Caden and Tyler (colby's brother's son) decided to decorate themselves.

Matt Paul's 2nd son eating more then decorating. Not only were there cookies to decorate but they also did some egg decorating CADEN & JACOB

Eveyone got in on the egg mess. if you look close at the kids you can see they all took off there shirts -so they wouldn't get dirty (talk about a close family -we all run around naked)

Before all the decorating we went outside and had an airplane throughing contest

This is as many of the kids as I could get to take a picture all together. Matt (on the wall behind) Jacob-Karley on his shoulders, Caden and Siena, Andrew-with the plane in the air and Tyler -looking at his plane. Not pictured Tatumn, Luke,Ava and Adelyn

It was a fun party and a beautiful day. Thank you to everyone who came and helped out with all the activities. This is what family is all about.
