Party Party

Gwyn's 1st birthday isn't until May 18th but the party was early so we could all attend!  Jessi had the house decorated really cute and served snacks and drinks while a couple of games were played.  Gwyn opened her gifts in two different segments and was the most animated child I have ever seen as she saw what was in the packages!!

 Gwyn's not sure what to think of this large cupcake but she soon started getting her fingers into it - very daintily I might add!!

 It's always fun to stand around and watch a little one eat, especially when it's sugar!!  The grownups feasted on a massive chocolate cake - extremely rich and oh so good!!

 After Gwyn's party, we sent the guys and the kids (minus Gwyn who took a nap) over to Jaime's house to relax for a while and then cook us dinner!  We girls vegged out and talked and I made white peach daiquiris and they were great!!  Then we headed over for burgers that Brad grilled and some sides - the guys even cleaned up!!

I opened my Mothers Day gift from the girls - my 2015 blog book printed out!!  Oh how I LOVE LOVE LOVE this gift every year!!

 We had Kylan open his birthday gift since we didn't know if we would be back up to Denver before his birthday!

 I always bring Hostess cupcakes if we're not there for the actual birthday party and that has to suffice for a birthday cake - the kids sure don't seem to mind that!!

 And then Glenn received his gift from all the kids - a really nice lounge chair to take camping!!  He looked at me after he got it and said "So what are you going to sit in?"   And about that time Jessi brings out ANOTHER lounge chair and says to me, Happy Early Birthday!!!  AWESOME - we have matching relaxing chairs for our camping trip - what a perfect gift!!!

 Sunday morning Jessi, Jaime and I went out for coffee - Jill's had went home the night before - and we thoroughly enjoyed that!!

I had fun reading Gwyn a book where you put your fingers through the peep holes and she just loved it!  Jessi was snapping pictures so just had to post a couple of them as they're so cute!!


 Glenn and Evan planted part of the garden that morning - Glenn always enjoys doing projects when he's up in Denver!
After a quick stop at Jaime's, we headed back to the mountains  -  another fantastic weekend in Denver!
