Brooks' 1st Birthday

Brooks turned 1 on August 26th. Yes, I know- two months ago.

Our family and friends came over and helped us celebrate. We had tacos, cupcakes, cake and slushies. Brooks got many 'toddler' toys which has been fun. A scooter, a sit and spin, toy cars, dump trucks and a push tricycle (I will explain this one with pictures).  I had lots of fun with the decorations. My ideas came from links from The Shipley's blog from when their little boy Eli turned 1 in February.



I started back at school-commuting to A&M this fall, Brooks is walking and making messes and Key is applying to Law School. We have been busy around these parts! Here are some pictures from Brooks' Birthday Party.
 Like any good mom, I did not take ONE picture. not one. So I got these off of my mom's camera. So frustrating.

 

This is the pushable tricycle. He LOVES it.
(I wrote this post oner a month ago, and it has been sitting as a draft. Brooks has grown leaps and bounds since these pictures. Also, this tricycle you see here? Its definitely not as shiny.)
