We had the privilege of helping Theo celebrate turning 1. He actually turned one a few weeks ago, but threw himself another party here in Ohio so we could be included. While he smiled pretty for the camera, he wanted nothing to do with the cupcake itself. Seriously? So strange.
There were a few general party pictures.
There was some card and present opening.
There was the obligatory singing for the birthday boy.
There was some help blowing out the candles.
There were some good photo ops with the cousins and grandma and papa.
It was a good night being with family. As I was talking with Marianne, one of Jeremy’s aunts, she said, “Just listen. Isn’t it so neat to hear all the noise? The people laughing and talking. The general happy noise of family.” It was true.
We had the opportunity to spend ;lunch yesterday with Jen and Arturo who came in from NY late Friday night. We came back for supper that night to hang out with Jason, Niki, and Theo who arrived later in the day from Minnesota. When everyone is so spread out, it is important to take time together. I am glad they are able to make it out.
