Celebrating Ethan

The next best thing for a one year old to celebrating his own birthday is celebrating the birthday of his cousin. We have had so much fun the last few days celebrating Ethan's birthday! And we have been thinking all about Blake's other cousin Ava, who lives in Texas, as she also celebrated her second birthday this last weekend. 

On Friday Robyn held a really fun friend birthday party with some cute kids in their neighborhood. He also invited Blake and his Shelton cousins. Robyn did a whole post on her blog with lots of details, so I won't talk about every thing, but I think she is amazing and can't help myself from sharing a few cute things. 

Robyn made homemade cupcakes with delicious buttercream frosting. She decorated them like Monsters University. That was the theme of the party. 

She painted a fun 'Pin the eye on Mike' poster. 

And a fun 'Toss the ball in Mike's mouth' game.

But this bubble machine stole the show. The kids LOVED it!!!

Robyn made pigs in a blanket, bagel pizza bites, and had Cheetos and watermelon. The kids were in food heaven. Ok, I was too. 

My little boy watching the big kids eat. He was mezmorized by them. 

Getting all of these kids in this picture was a miracle. Ethan is so lucky to have so many great friends right in his neighborhood!

The celebration didn't stop there. Since the rest of our family couldn't come during the day on Friday, Robyn invited us up for a little celebration tonight. Robyn made the most amazing French bread. Seriously, it was so good. Look how beautiful it is!


While we were waiting for the lasagna to cook we took advantage of the last few hours of daylight and ran over to the park.

My mom is such a fun grandma!


Look how beautiful she is!! She is the best grandma! 





Dinner was delicious. Everything tastes better at Robyn's house. 


And then it was time for cake and (homemade) ice cream. We sang happy birthday to Ethan about 5 times, letting him blow out candles eat times. It's his favorite thing. 



We love you Ethan!!! Thanks for being Blake's best friend! He loves and adores you!
