Gray's First Birthday Party!

Gray's First Birthday Party was "loads" of fun! (Yuk, yuk!) We had a transportation-theme (what else?) and held it at our local fire department. The entire party itself went well! Gray wasn't in the best mood, but Nora wasn't in a great mood for her first birthday either. Gray wanted nothing to do with opening presents, but he sure enjoyed his cake! He ate a little of it, but mostly he enjoyed squishing it between his fingers. ;) There were lots of kids present, so we had lots of kid-activities going on. Nora had a great time running around and playing with all the kids, and Grayson pretty much just played on the floor by himself with a Little People Ferris Wheel - which we have had for his entire life, but he just recently discovered! ;) One of Gray's favorite gifts was this car toy from my dad and step-mom. My nephew enjoyed it a lot too! ;) It was a really fun day, and all the work to get it going was totally worth it! Happy Birthday Grayson!

The Kid-Activities: Play Doh with transportation cookie cutters, transportation coloring sheets, and paint-your-own-car

The road I designed for the party. It didn't stick to the floor at all, but it was still fun.
