Lucy's Birthday Party

Last weekend was the formal celebration of Lucy's first birthday. There were family and friends, presents and most importantly, cake. It had all the makings of what a first birthday should be. Here are a few of the photo highlights...


Grandpa got a good dose of Goose's loving. He even made a point to not clash with the birthday girl's outfit.


Presents came first. Goose did fairly well at getting the wrapping paper off. A little help from mommy was a time saving strategy. Although, tissue paper in bagged gifts was no problem.

We were lucky enough to have the lady that made our wedding cake make the cake for this occasion, as well. Mom did such a great job at bringing together all the aspects of a wonderful ladybug themed party. 



We fed the ladybug portion of the cake to Goose first. All she did was eat icing, not quite realizing the fluffy treat that lie beneath. So...


We fed her a piece of cake, instead. Here she is adorned in her party hat from Uncle Paul.


"This is sooooo good," she seemed to say. Good stuff, Maynard.


Well, the party was a smash and Goose filled her role as the messiest cake eater in the room perfectly. For mom and dad, this felt a little like a rite of passage; this was the first of many birthdays to come. Happy Birthday, Goose. We love you.
