Jameson's 1st Birthday Fiesta

I know you have heard it all before, but my oh my where has the time gone? Our little baby has become a little boy seemingly overnight! It has been an incredible year with too many blessings to count. Jameson is such a fantastic little person, but I am biased. Each new stage brings excitement and joy, but also the tiniest bit of a sad goodbye to the things you are leaving behind. But I am very proud of myself because I don't remember shedding a tear during the party, which is quite the feat for me (although I did have to watch the video Jake made of Jameson's first year 5 or 6 times beforehand to prevent that from happening)!

We celebrated Jameson's big day surrounded by family and threw a fiesta. We had a taco bar with all the fixin's, chips and queso, guacomole, frito salad, layer dip and more! Of course, there was way too much food, but I come by that honestly. Jameson was casually interested in opening his gifts in between socializing and photo ops. The weather was so enjoyable (60 and sunny in November!) and we were able to take the kids outside for a bit to have a go at the pinata. And of course, we finished the evening with cake and icecream. Jameson had a jumbo cupcake from The Flying Cupcake that he devoured perfectly, and not too long after that he was very ready for bed. Partying is such hard work!

Most importantly we would be remiss if we didn't thank all the people who helped to bring the party together. From family who traveled and came after long hours at work to our parents who hosted, set-up decorations, bought and stuffed pinatas, aunts and cousins who helped provide food and drinks and friends who helped serve cake and drinks, it was all beyond appreciated. Jameson can't wait to pay you back in hugs and kisses.

Very interested in the candle!

Really going for it!

Our family

Happy Birthday Jameson!
