This past Saturday we had a family party for Bo at GiGi and Pop's house. Bo of course was very excited to see Ava when she got there. They stay together on Mondays and are so close! It is precious to watch them together. They really love each other!
The cake - for the adults.
We were so glad Mary Ellen could come. She is so great with Bo! Side note - I made the shirt Bo is wearing. So many people have little jumpers etc. made but a t shirt just seemed more practical for us.
If you have ever attended a family birthday at our house you will understand why the wax is fixing to drip on Bo's cake. My family thinks it is fun to sing lots of Birthday songs.
Finally the songs were over and Bo got to try his cake. He was not sure at first.
Ava was watching Bo so intently! We let her dig in beside Bo. We figured it would be twice the fun to watch!
Ava was very concerned about making sure that Bo got a bite of cake. She decided she better help him out and tried to feed him. It was PRECIOUS!
Bo got frustrated trying to eat and decided to just bite the cake.
I was surprised that Bo stayed this clean.
I was surprised that Bo stayed this clean. We had to get a picture of all of the cousins before cleaning up.
Present time!

Bo's granddaddy made him a special piggy bank. Our pastor gave us the idea of a bank that had 3 sections. One for tithing, one for saving, and one for spending. Bo's grandfather went the extra mile making a beautiful bank with engraved plates and all!

I cannot believe he is 1 already!!! And Luke will be there soon... Looks like you guys had a great celebration. I love the piggy bank...what a special gift :)
Thanks for your comment, thoughts & prayers! It's so good to see you :) Yes...I think the 1 yr mark is especially tough. I am just amazed at how time flies & really that has always seemed true but never really mattered until having kids! Sigh. I am just thankful to have the Lord to focus on & trust in b/c it would be so overwhelming if not!
I love that you made his birthday shirt; you need to post a close-up of it! So cute!
Happy Birthday Bo!
