last friday, mark (my nephew in law) and i headed down to atlanta for braedon's (my great nephew) first birthday. i had just been down there a couple of weeks earlier so this was another quickie trip, mark and i hit atlanta about 2:00 am saturday morning. tracey and braedon were already there and his party was planned for saturday afternoon.
we, along with family and friends, celebrated his first birthday with a party at my mom & dad's and it was a blast. he was in a great mood, very wound up, having a lot of fun and putting on a little show for everyone. the big fun was that he had his own cake and enjoyed it...a lot, as you can see from the pictures above. he got lot's of great gifts...toys, books, clothes but seemed to enjoy the boxes and wrapping paper far more than any gifts that were inside of them. i gave him a couple of books, "pat the bunny" and "goodnight moon" they were callie and zach's favorites when they were little (and i wanted "clive eats alligators" but it's out of print) and i'm looking forward to sitting down and reading them to him. i have some great memories reading those books and i'm looking forward to more.
it's great how kids bring family and friends together, he's a blessed boy, with a lot of love surrounding him. it was a good weekend.
