R's 1st Birthday!!!

I can't believe how fast the year has gone by! I swear, it was only a few months ago that I remember getting the good news that Baby R had arrived....and now he is 1! His first year has brought many memories and laughter...OK and a few tears, but most of those were from laughing so hard!

No more Baby R...He is now a Big Boy! He and his parents have grown to be an extension of our family and we have enjoyed many days, nights, afternoons with each other and our boys. Our boys are best buds and do a lot together, like fight for the same toy when there is a room full of them! Grab each others sippy cups even though they are completely different, and they even started walking within the same week! 


Party time was fast approaching and the theme of jungle animals was set. So the cupcake thinking cap was put on. Hmmm...what should we do this time? Animal cupcakes, an animal cupcake cake? focus on one animal (like R's favorite - the Monkey)???

Jungle Cupcakes: Vanilla, Chocolate & Marble all topped with Vanilla Buttercream




























We decided on Vanilla, Chocolate, and Marble Cupcakes with grass Vanilla Buttercream and the cutest Animal Cupcake Toppers I have EVER seen!



What a fantastic afternoon spent with a room full of special people!

HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY R!!!!!
