Happy 1st Birthday Davis!! (observed)

Since Davis's birthday is December 24th, we decided to celebrate a couple weeks earlier so that we could have lots of family all together. I have so many pictures I want to share....

Davis has been sick on and off since we've been back. This is his second ear infection this month so he started his day with 103 fever and taking his medicines. Though he wasn't feeling well, he had a happy attitude throughout the day. You'll notice his smiles look a little bit tired though!

After breakfast, he spent quite a bit of time snuggling with Uncle David on the couch.


While Davis was relaxing, Dan and the rest of the guys made it there mission to build a campfire in the lake so that we could roast smores later that night. My dad was excited since this cleaned a lot of the dead trees out of the woods!


Scruffy didn't do a good job lifting the logs, as usual he found a place to rest and see the action.


After Davis's nap we changed him into his outfit made by his Aunt Anne! She took a smocking class this fall and surprised us by making Davis an adorable outfit! He looked more then cute!


Davis and Uncle Will hung out a lot. Davis just loved getting to visit with his relatives that he hadn't seen in a long time.


The proud grandma and gramps.


We took tons of pictures... Here is our cutie!!!



Here Davis is preparing to eat his cake.

Not to sure about his cake... I made a no sugar applesauce cake with coolwhip on it. Thankfully, I tasted it before i served it to everyone else. Davis loves it, but I don't think the rest of us would have! SO, I made a sugar filled cake for the rest of us to enjoy, and Davis has tons of squares frozen to eat for the next few weeks!

Davis enjoyed opening his gifts, he loves to read!

Happy Birthday Davis!!! Thank you everyone for coming. :)

Happy Birthday, Davis! I can't believe it's been a year. Good idea to celebrate early so it doesn't conflict with Christmas. Wonder what you'll do as he gets older?

Isn't it funny to see a bunch of adults wearing funny hats, and the one child in the picture (whose actual birthday it is) has no hat on whatsoever. "Guys, I'm too cool for the hats". Nice pictures! Sounds like you're having fun with family! J
