Owen's First Birthday

Today was Owen's first birthday. It's hard to believe that he is already a year old. Time really flies! We had a family party this afternoon to celebrate the big occasion. The first picture here shows the birthday boy with his party hat and personal cake. Owen really liked his cake, but I think that more got on his face than in his mouth.




Owen received a lot of nice gifts. He hadn't quite gotten the hang of opening them, but Ava and Olivia were more than happy to help him out. I think that Owen actually got a little overwhelmed at one point, but he managed to get through. The present that Brian and I got for him was a baby swing. And where did we put that swing?---On our new swingset, of course. It just so happened that one of last year's swingset models turned up on a truck at Brian's work last week. Since the set was an older model, it had been marked down- way down. Brian was able to get a really good deal on it, and so we had an extra little birthday surprise for our kids. They enjoyed playing on it, and we are looking forward to using it a lot this spring and summer.
