Happy 1st Birthday!
After a big dinner of Grilled Burgers and Hotdogs with all the toppings, it was on to the cake!! Just a little background, the cake is a combination of Lowe & Hornberger family traditions. The 4 layered cake with whipped cream frosting and animal crackers for the 1 year old to pick off and eat! (Have you picked up that I like traditions??)
Here he's inspecting his first piece of cake, but don't let this picture fool you. He didn't eat any of it. After a bit, I decided to take the cake away and see what he would do if I just put some pieces of unfrosted cupcake in front of him. That did the trick! I wasn't surprised by his reluctance to eat his own birthday cake--neither of his brothers would touch their first cakes either and if the truth be known, my favorite way to eat cake is warm from the oven without frosting too! A tradition in the making? Noooo, it's too fun to decorate cakes the older they get!
After the food was finished we moved the fun outside where the cousins had races and games. Jamis had a backyard-side seat to watch the fun while he finished eating!
How fast can you do the crab walk?
Then we headed back inside for presents.
Thank you to our friends and family that helped us celebrate such a wonderful day!!
