Liam, Your birthday camp out was a blast!
It started out with some really cool invites:
Was influenced by some cool camp ideas:
And turned out sooooooo cute!
Here's a look at the campsite (a.k.a. the backyard):
campsite entrance
The favors:
Hobo sacks for each of the kids, filled with camping stuff
S'more packs for the adults
The grub:
Campground Cake
"S'more"gasborg full of yummy camp treats--like muddy twigs, s'more bars, campout crunch and marshmallow pops!
Homemade straw flags in the shapes of tents, lantern and compasses
and a make your own Hot Dog bar
And a look at the fun that was had!
You loved the bright balloons (and you can even say "ba-ooon" now!)
Aunt Nicole helping with the veggie cups
Great Grandma Lois and Papa Allen
You found your way to the stump!
more ba-ooons!
you hated the hat
and the cake!
instead of cake, you preferred the "pond" (fully clothed)
as did the rest of the wee little party goers
you were quite the slugger with the bee hive pinata (also homemade--what a project that was!)
And you got lots of fun presents, but the best (and most appropriate to the theme) was the homemade (YES, HOMEMADE!) sleeping bag and pillow from Ericka. You love snuggling with it everyday!

and the Kratz's
We hope you had as much fun celebrating number one as we did! Happy Birthday Buddy!
