Saturday December 4th we celebrated Dexter's First Birthday!
I was completely frantic all day preparing. Justin and his friends built a deck and patio in our backyard so that we would have enough room for all of the people. We figured it may be kinda chilly being the beginning of December and all, but we would have fire pit and it would be a great area for guests to hang out. Well, the weather took a turn for the worst. About an hour before the party it began raining, snowing, and some hail! After a few mild panic attacks, everything turned out fine, we just packed 35 or people in our tiny house. It was a bit chaotic!
By the end of the party Dexter was so tired, he was just wondering around through the people.
I'm so thankful that my Mom was in town all week to help me with the party and Dexter. He had so much fun with Grandma!
Enjoy the pics! Thanks to all of our friends and family for coming, especially those who drove from Wilmington and Raleigh!
These photos are from his actual Birthday. We had dinner at a Mexican restaurant, which Dexter loved because he likes to move to the music. It's so funny! Then he opened a present and ate cake for the first time. It was a bad idea to give him cake at 8:30pm, he was up all night!
Happy First Birthday Dexter!!!!
