Nathanael Turns One


It's hard to believe that its been one year since our Nathanael was born. And what a first year for our little man! He lived in South Carolina for the first three months of his life. While there he went on his first vacation to Hilton Head at 1 month old. Then we moved to Texas for two months, where he bounced from Nina to Gigi's houses. Then finally, at five months old we moved into our house in Colorado. Nate is quite the little trooper and constantly makes us laugh with his cute faces and adventurous spirit! We celebrated yesterday with a farm themed party with some of our friends here in Grand Junction.



The kids had lemonade in their very own "mason" jars (re-purposed baby food jars:)

The Lawtons brought two baby goats and a rabbit for the kids to play with. They were a hit! Thanks for making our farm theme awesome!



We ate hamburgers, pretzels, veggie straws, vegetables, and cheese and had lemonade to drink.
Justin did a great job seasoning the burgers, they were very tasty!


The barn cake:) I was glad to have the peeps, because of Easter, I think it gave it a fun touch!
Let's just say, Nate likes cake:)

Big sister helped to open the presents (he was too busy eating cake)
Am I cute or what? Yes, Ashley, thank you for the adorable sunglasses, he loves them!
We are so blessed to have such a sweet little man and continually pray that he will grow to love Jesus and live for Him! Thank you Lord for this amazing blessing in our lives!
