First Birthday Party! Yeehaw!

Last Saturday was the big party for our little buckaroo. Since Tony is only one, doesn't really have any friends, and won't remember we decided to not have a big party, but we did have a theme - cowboy! We had family and a couple close friends over for the afternoon. Anthony's family flew in on Friday to be there for the big day. Tony was quite the host. He shared his toys with everyone there and made the rounds so everyone felt included. He loved being the center of attention, of course. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves:

Sloppy Joes

Drinking from mason jars, like real cowboys
Cowboy caviar, potato salad, spinach dip, and cinnamon apples 
Tony's cowboy boots (that never did get worn), his cowboy hat and Texas Ranger badge





















Post party nap.





 Tony was riding the high late into the night. He was the last one to go to bed. At 11:30pm, Anthony and I were in Tony's room with him, and laid on the floor as he tore it apart playing with everything in there. Finally, Anthony got up, said, "I can't take it anymore," shut off the lights, and we put Tony to bed. Wide awake. Tony had a wonderful time (as did we all) and will not be having sugar again anytime soon.
The aftermath.
Thanks to everyone for making Tony's first birthday so special!
