Birthday Celebration

Grandpa was home today, so we took advantage of the rare family time and celebrated Nathanael's birthday a day early!

What could be more appropriate than a Mr. Bear cake?!
He wasn't really into the sweetness of it. Can you tell?
But he had fun squishing it between his hands!
And he gladly offered it to the rest of us.
He enjoyed opening a few special gifts and cards as well.
And lastly, we created a homemade hand impression to remember Nathanael's one-year-old hands for years and years to come. (Getting the imprint from Nathanael was way more difficult than I imagined!)
A special day indeed...

What a blessing to share with you Nathanael`s first birthday!! Love the pictures of him and the birthday bear cake especially his reaction to eating it and sharing LOL!! Nathanael certainly looks alot like his daddy at that age. We have pictures of Greg`s first birthday with chocolate cake smeared all over his face.We had to"hose"him off afterward.Glad you made it back from Texas safely and the trip went well.It was exciting to see how well Nathanael is walking since he took his first hesitant steps in Michigan.

The Lord`s Blessings to you all !!

Love,

Grandmom & Grandaddy King
