Have your cake...and eat it too!

On Saturday we had a little birthday party for Asher at my parent's house. It was fun to spend time with family and friends to celebrate Asher's 1st year of life! Of course, the best part of the afternoon was watching Asher enjoy and devour his birthday cake...

The cake
Asher's personal cake ("Before Asher")
Singing "Happy Birthday" and Ash wanting to touch the cake
He doesn't know what's about to hit him -
Getting a little frustrated cause we weren't moving fast enough...
Scoping out the cake with Grandma Brokke & Grandma Finzel
Grandpa Brokke and Grandpa Finzel showing him how it's done
Starting to get the hang of it....with Grandpa and Grandma Brokke
Grandpa and Grandma Finzel
He could care less about this picture...the cake now has ALL his attention
Mmmmm
Yeah, a total mess.

This is how it's done...
Personal cake..."After Asher"! Yeah, he did some damage.
Opening gifts
(had to have the pacifier by this time to avoid a total meltdown)
Playing with his new toys!
Such a fun day celebrating our little man - nothing like a first birthday party with family and friends! A true joy in life.
