Gunnar's 1st birthday party!
It was all Dr. Seuss. Horton hung out in the tree while Yertle and the Cat swung from the chandelier, and a great time was had by all! The pink Cat's Hat cake did turn out red after all (thanks to an 11th hour family effort), and Gunnar wore his special #1 romper from Aunt Lizzie and a great big smile. We were very thankful to have so many friends and family join us for the big celebration - Patty, Rooty, Nan, Aunt Sue, the Davis', Grams, Grandpa, CJ & family, Mr. Mike, the Spachs, the Meyers, the Tumlins, Joanna, Catherine, Leigh, Mike, Thomas, and Gregory!
After working up an appetite playing with sidewalk chalk and bubbles, we filled up with green eggs and ham and the YInk's pink ink. Cousin Connor and Uncle CJ got rowdy with their grape-eating contest, which was swiftly foiled by Grams' sneak attack. I got it all on video, which is sure to go down in history. You will soon be able to view it here!
The weather was perfect, and the party was a blast. Gunnar, even though you probably won't remember your party, we wanted to give you a fun day as our way of thanking you for giving us the best year of our lives. Happy 1st Birthday, Cheeks! Love, Mom and Dad
