1st birthday party - playtime with cousins and friends!

We had Emerson's 1st birthday party on Saturday, with about 25 friends and family. What a great time! Emerson had a ball. He played hard with his cousins and friends, barely had time for cake, and opened lots of fun gifts! Since there are so many pictures, I'm going to break this up a bit...


Playtime!
Emerson had lots of playmates at his party. He showed them all of his fun toys on his playground...the slide, the castle, the (temporarily) empty pool, the picnic table, the water toy, and the newest addition, the toolbench.

"So...this is my pool."

Emerson and Teddy at the water table...getting completely soaked!

"Here, Teddy...let me show you how to use it."

"Hey, Em...not sure if you're aware, but there's a party going on for you."

"A party??? Where???"

A little sticky outside...time for an A/C break!
