Coleman turned 1-year-old today (at 11:30 am to be exact) and we had a GREAT time celebrating! We started our morning by baking and frosting cupcakes.
This is Coleman's "Cupcake-Cake" Instead of frosting 24 individual cupcakes, my friend gave me the idea to frost them all together. I really like it... no need for plates or forks! Maybe next year I'll get more daring with Spiderman or some other shape.***
We had a few friends and family members over for a Birthday Party... and do we know how to party! We began the night with "Balloon Fun"

Then we moved on to "Pin the Tail of the Donkey"
Nico won "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" and her prize was being the first to take a swing at the pinata.
Our Pinata was homemade... can you tell? It's been a while since I have Paper Mached anything :) FYI- It is suppose to be a Balloon
Broc finally broke the Pinata. Everyone started shoving and pushing to get candy... and the kids were worse!
Then it was CAKE TIME! Coleman wasn't sure what was going on. He loved everyone singing to him! 
And then he realized it was a yummy cupcake!
All of Coleman's friends got to eat their cupcakes on the "Magic Red Carpet" They all did pretty good. 
Most of the mess was contained and no one threw anything. I think that is VERY successful!
Thanks to EVERYONE who helped us celebrate Coleman's 1st Birthday!

What a fun birthday party! Geez, my birthday didn't turn out nearly as exciting! Next year I'm definitely incorporating the pin the tail on the donkey game. You're such a good mom! Remember when we were college roomies and you were always super good with kids? I barely even held my little brother when he was born. I knew you were going to be a good mom, I still have a long ways to go! P.S. You look really good. See ya guys soon!
