The Libby's Den: Aiden's 1st Birthday Party

Sunday was the day we celebrated Aiden's 1st birthday with close family and friends. We had A LOT to celebrate this year!! Aiden and I have recovered very well and are thriving. So, of course I thought I would just throw something simple together. Yeah right! I know myself better than that and knew I was full of crap when I said it. I spent the night before the party reupholstering the kitchen chairs and making curtains. Hilarious. Anyway, it all turned out beautifully and Aiden had a blast!

This was the photo card that was handed out to our guests thanking them for all of their prayers over this past year while Aiden and I recovered.

I'm tying a doggy balloon on Ashlyn's backpack. Love her curls!

As usual, Aiden and I were chasing each other on the floor.

My dear friends Sara and Carole. Don't know what I'd do without them being next door!!!

Brooke finally able to hold Aiden. She's been missing him.

Maybe he looks like me just a little bit???

Harper, Aiden's girlfriend, is my little princess! I just love her!!

Let's just say I put more effort into the party decorations than into the cake. Sadly, I started decorating the cake when my friends were arriving. It was supposed to look like our dog, Niki. I won't tell you what I called it. This is a family/friendly blog. LOL!
