AND the cake! He really dug in!



Orange, green and black icing does not look good all smushed up!

We bought some hay bales from a nearby Feed Store. It was fun to have a little mini pumpking patch in the backyard!

MOM.OF.THE.YEAR!
Awesome indeed! My favorite? The year in pictures :) My Mom did something similar for my 16th birthday except she had them in frames and of course it wasn't all 16 years :)
And.. I'm with Cindy on the adult beverages :)

What an excellent party! I love the cake and all the details. Cute stuff. I have always wanted to do a Halloween party for Missy Mack. One day we will since she has an October bday. I am super impressed with your themed food and all. Looks like lots of fun. I also love the idea of the pictures in the doorway. Pretty clever. Happy 1st Bday Liam!
