The Forman Fam: PARTY-TIME!!!

So we really had a blast with Tristan’s first birthday party, and the best part is he did too! He handled all the craziness like a champ and loved playing with all his best friends. Our idea was to have a laid-back cookout with our lifegroup and family at our house, watch some college football, eat some cake, and just hangout. The funniest part was trying to corral all our seven lifegroup boys for a group “football player” picture in all their milk jug football helmets. Hilarious. I have a complete and total respect for people who can take good pictures of babies, especially more than one at a time! Everyone who was huddled around watching was laughing at all of us crazies trying to get some cute pics. It didn’t take long for the boys to tell us enough of this, let’s go play!

Time to Eat!!! Justin fired up the grill and we all enjoyed the gorgeous weather outside and watched the Texas/OU football game. Of course all the moms ended up with all the babies in the playroom in pure toddler mahem! I didn’t get near enough pictures of everyone else hanging out, I guess I was having too much fun just enjoying everyone!

Eating his birthday CAKE – Yum!

After lunch we gathered everyone around T’s special birthday chair and sang him a little Happy Birthday. I thought he’d be overwhelmed by this, but he proved me wrong! Must be like his momma and love the attention! Although he was a little shy with it at first, it didn’t take too long for Tristan to realize this was GOOD stuff!

Sic’ Em Bears?! Okay!

Here we go…

Mmmmm, can mommy have some too?!?

The party ended with a little more hang-out time outside, especially with our family. Wesleigh made Tristan look like a real football player with his tough-guy black lines under the eyes!
