Gordon's 1st Birthday

We celebrated Gordon's birthday Memorial Day weekend! Patrick and I decided to make Gordon's 1st Birthday a very special one. We had our families over for a barbeque lunch and Patrick's chicken and ribs were delicious. Gordon's guests included his best friend and cousin Ben, all of his aunts, uncles, grandparents, and godparents. Everyone got to enjoy being with the birthday boy and it was a special day celebrating the youngest Caraway with the oldest Caraway, Big Poppy, in attendance. We were able to get great family photos to remember the special day!

Gordon loved his cake and could have eaten the entire cake if I would have let him. Ethan, Cooper and all of the cousins had fun playing together in the backyard! It was the perfect way to celebrate our little "man" turning 1!!

A fist full of cake in the mouth-yummy! He isn't sure he wants to share with you, Poppy!

Lots of fun boy toys!
