Happy 1st Birthday (Party), Owen!!! 1.15.07

What a memorable evening we just had!! Owen and several of our wonderful family and friends celebrated Owen's first birthday tonight! The big day is fast approaching(!) (the 17th), and I can hardly believe my baby is a big one-year-old already. What a remarkable first year! In high spirits, we rang in his second year in style:

A balloon forest grew in our playroom and streamers and birthday banners told all it was time to party!
Never party on an empty tummy! Pizza was just the ticket to jump-start the festivities!Collin DJd the night, and Marley drew the crowds to the floors with her dance moves.
Even Taylor was out on the dance floor!Once the party was in full-swing, the gifts begged to be opened!
SEVERAL kids joined in to help our little man! ; )
Rylan was one of many to enjoy the wonder and amazement of helium balloons!
Kicked back in the chair and refueling after their "rides" around the loop (tricycling around the downstairs), Naomi and Brennen wait for the cutting of the cake.
Cookie Monster, Big Bird, Elmo and Zoe adorned the cake, instruments in hand, and we sang Happy Birthday to our little O!
Are you serious?! For me?!Now that's a treat! Yummy!If you're not going to take it away, I think I'll have some more!!
And More!
And More?!
Finger painting!
Somebody loosen my belt!!
As you can see, Owen ended up LOVING the birthday cake. Although he ate much of it with his hands, he also frequently used the Big Bird figure as a "dip stick," dipping it in the frosting and filling, then licking it clean and dipping it again!!

He definitely did not skip bath before bed tonight! And oh, did he crash. Zzzzz ... goodnight all! Thank you so much to those of you who were able to make it! We had so much fun!
