Birthday Fun

We had Marshall's first birthday party this afternoon. He had fun but I think he got a little overwhelmed once we started cake. He didn't even open a single gift, we brought them home and I will open them with him in the morning. There was just too much to see and do, no time to sit and open gifts.

I am so grateful for the time that my sister gave in order to decorate Marshall's cake (Thank you soooo much, Staci). It turned out better than I expected, it really was too cute. I think she could open a little business on the side. She always does an awesome job with her cakes, the octopus was no exception.

The biggest surprise of the evening was Marshall's dislike of the cake. He has had cake before and loved it. Tonight he just wasn't interested. Oh well...he was interested in the ice cream! Enjoy the pictures of his party. I also posted two more posts with just pictures because it's quicker to do it that way than to wait on blogger to let me download them on the same post.
