Noah's 1st Birthday!!!!!

Noah Wesley Dean is now one year old!! His birthday party was on Saturday (his birthday was officially on Monday), and you couldn't have asked for a better day!! It was a clear, sunny day, probably in the upper 70s or lower 80s. Beautiful day to be in the park!! :) Several of his cousins and friends were there: Briggs, Lacee, Landon, Micaiah, Emma, Chloe, and Drew. It was so much fun to see all of the kids together and playing!! We had a little cookout with tasty hamburgers and hot dogs and macaroni salad, summertime pasta salad, and chips. Auntie Sybbie made yummy cupcakes for everyone and a small cake just for Noah to devour! He was so funny digging in to his cake! Cake and icing everywhere! Briggs and Lacee helped Noah out when it came time to open gifts...he had more fun tearing some of the paper than what the gifts actually were! He got lots of clothes, some cd/books, balls, a "Ready Steady Rider" (like a tricycle), and a car seat...oh...and $1!!!! :) It was a great day, and I feel so blessed to have Noah in my life! It's really hard to believe that it's been a year since being in the hospital with Noah as a little newborn baby! I love you, baby boy!!! :)

Soon I'll have the pictures up for everyone to see from the party...
