We even had a few balloons and party hats!
Karson loved hitting the balloons
Cousins
Karson enjoyed the pizza
Birthday guests
Present time!
I was so proud of the kids for watching Karson open his gifts and not helping too much
Look what big sis did to me!
Cake time!
He dug right in and found out he really liked cake:) In the middle he took a small break but then dove back in for more! I probably went a little overboard with messy cake face pics but they are just so darn cute!!!
Notice how much cake he ate?
This cake goatee cracks me up!
End result...
Now on his actual birthday the kids decided what he should eat for breakfast...a waffle and chocolate chip pancake (each of their favorites of course). He loved them both:)
After dinner it was present time from grandparents, aunts/uncles, and mommy and daddy. As you'll see in the pics below, Karson was VERY good at unwrapping the gifts! He grabbed lots of pieces and ripped them off without any help. He got so many great toys and adorable outfits!
He was so excited to open the gifts that he crawled to them
A few days before, big sis and big brother helped me decorate another cake. They each got one side of the cake as their own and really went all out with the icing:)
Then they each picked out a candle to put on their side of the cake and helped Karson blow it out
More cake!
Daddy even suprised me with a very yummy white chocolate and strawberry cake complete with numbers...which I haven't had on a cake in years:)
It was so nice to have a day where I received so many texts, emails, cards, and gifts to help celebrate my special day:) THANK YOU SO MUCH! ! ! ! ! We have so many blessings from God to be thankful for...here's to many, many more years!

Needless to say, Karson had such a fun filled 1st birthday:) We just can't believe he's one! Thanks to everyone for the cards, toys, clothes, gift cards, etc. He'll have a great time these next few months finding out how all the toys work. You all made it such a special few days for him!!!
Stay tuned for another post about Karson's latest milestones...
