Uncle Jamie was quite proud of his nephew turning one!

The party was perfect.... many of our friends that we don't see very often came in to town. We had friends and family from Dallas, San Antonio, and Waco come in for Eli's big party!

Whitney and Steven came as well... Whitney was a super big help at gift time!

Thanks Whitney!

(by the way... the party was also hoppin' with 6 preggos!)

Whitney, me, Penny, Angie, Gretchen, and Jen... wow!
What a baby boom!

Can't imagine next years party and the baby attendance!

Eli received so many gifts! Our house looks like Toys-R-Us! We love it! So much to explore and play with! Thank you, all! Eli is so excited with every toy!

Cousin Laurie from the Waco family bunch came... she even taught Eli how to flip on and off a light switch!


Aunt Dian was a great help with the food decision and planning... thank you!

Eli's great-grandfather, Pa, came in from Waco to celebrate.
Cousin Tatum, Eli, and Pa posed for a pic! When Eli was trying to eat his cake and goldfish, Jaden joined in to help.

The Stephenson family is getting ready to celebrate Jaden's 1st birthday as well. His party is this coming Sunday. Eli and Jaden are 2 days apart.... Chelette and I have been buds since 5th grade. We hope our boys grow up together and share the same friendship and bond we have.

Justin jumped for joy!

This is a pic of some of the kids at the party. I realized after several had left, that I needed to take a pic of all the kids. Right before gift opening time, I got all the kids that were still at the party in the living room.... it was quite a task! haha!
As I said in the previous post, we had at least 25 kids age 6 and under.... wow!!
Momma and Daddy with the Birthday Boy! Happy 1st Birthday, Eli! We love you!
