Porter's Birthday Party

Well for my little Guy's Big Day-- we celebrated in style-- I thought it was stylish any way!!

I took the day off work-- because I was sure I'd be wreck and cry all day -- which I didn't-- but I did cry some-- it was sad for me - -that he is turning 1 --and I was grieving a little-- give me a break alright!

Any way -- we had sent out the cutest invitations using this picture----

They said on the bottom

Its my Birthday
You Better Come to My Party Or Else

Don't you just love the threatening look on Porter's face--with his tiny fist of fury!!!

I made individual Cheesecakes-- Porter doesn't really like cake-- but he does like cheese cake! Soo-- we had deliciousness for everyone!  My mom brought three different types of toppings, Raspberry, Cherry and I think Blueberry-- it was blue any way!! Ooh delicious!

Apparently I was trying to will Porter's eyes open with my eyes being soo big-- geeze Scary huh!!!

We invited all our friends and family -- we had a house full-- about 30 people -- wow-- does this little guy have some love surrounding him!

We had dinner-- Loaded Potato Bar/Nacho Bar (what ever your fancy may be!) Porter was too busy playing to eat too much But I think he enjoyed it!

 Jodi, (she had to work, but came out later!! -- good thing Porter thinks she is his nother Mother) Ryan and Gramma Great!  apparently Porter inherited Gramma Great's tendency to bling during pictures!

Helping get ready for the party!!

Porter got some amazing presents -- and was excited for each one--

 Sporting his new big boy clothes from Gramma Great the next day!!

I love watching his face!  He got super excited for the very last present-- it was a little scooter bike shaped like a red whale-- his face lit up and he got soo excited when Doug brought it out from the back-- it was priceless!!

All the little kids loved the Whale  Car!! it was a hit all around!

Me and Porter had practiced earlier that day blowing out "hot" candles-- he blows on hot stuff!!
It didn't work as well as we had praticed-- but it was still soo cute!

 Porter sporting his classy new camo hat-- (Thanks Shar and Gary!) I just love it! Now he can be super snuggly warm all winter!

Porter's girlfriend- what a cutie!!

Thanks to all who came and celebrated-- and thank you to my family -- you are all the best! You make life wonderful and Porter is soo lucky to have you all!
