Our little nephew Maddax (Rach & Brent's boy) turned ONE this weekend, and today we went into Lethbridge to celebrate the occasion. I already wrote about the other events of our week but trust me- a party like this deserves a post of its very own!
Rachel planned a Birthday/Halloween Carnival that would put any party planner to shame. Brent offered up the Vivint headquarters and they invited some of their nearby friends and family. Oh my goodness- what a party!!! The kids got goody bags with tokens that they could spend on various games: Abby loved the face painting that Maddax's Aunt Lana did for her. Nate wouldn't stop bowling and barely gave the other kids a try (but hey...at least he wasn't hitting anyone;). Sam LOVED the fish pond. And Jess was her usual self...happy with it all! John was put in charge of the candy jar contest and he took that job very seriously to say the least;)
There were peanuts, brownie-covered oreos, candy popcorn, caramel apples, veggies, hot dogs macaroni, and the yummiest cupcakes ever!
Maddax was a doll and we love that little boy so much! It was cute to watch him as everyone (all 40+ of us) sang Happy Birthday. He must have loved the attention because he clapped for the first time and seemed so proud of himself for it!!! Rach impressed us all with her amazing candle blowing skills, (not really though;) and my kids came home that afternoon exclaiming that THIS...was now officially "the best day EVER!"
So, thank you Rachel and Brent for not only having such a cute little boy, but also for completely trumping every 'best day' that I've ever tried to give my kids. Well done!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the happiest little boy we know!
