Today we celebrated Tyler's birthday with family, neighbors, and friends. As I sit here reflecting on the day and looking at pictures I am overwhelmed with how blessed I feel to have so many people in our lives that love us and Tyler. We are so lucky!
The past few weeks our backyard has been "under construction". We wanted to have a water party for Tyler since he loves to be outside and loves to play in water. The crew worked so hard to get the patio ready for his party and they finished just in time! Here are a few before/after pictures.
This is the "before" view looking into our backyard from the back porch door.

We will be spending lots of time out here this summer!
Anyways...back to Tyler's party. There was supposed to be a big storm roll through right when we had planned the party but thankfully it didn't. We kept it simple and had pizza, fruit, and cupcakes for everyone.
Here is the spread minus the pizza.
I thought Tyler would devour the cake but he was pretty timid when we put it in front of him. Honestly, I think he was just overwhelmed with all the people cheering him on.
The rest of the party was spent playing in the baby pool, water sprinkler, slip-n-slide, and of course we had a massive water gun fight.
Thank you to everyone who helped us celebrate our precious boy's 1st birthday. Tyler, we love you so much and are so thankful to have you in our lives. You are such a blessing and we can't imagine life without you.
