Cooper's 1st Birthday Party!

We celebrated Cooper's first birthday by inviting all our friends and family to our house for food and drinks. It was a time for us to have a drink with everyone who helped us survive the first year of being parents and of course celebrate Cooper's birth!

Cooper does not say a whole lot of words yet, but he does say "gugas" which means doggies in Cooper speak. So I decided to go with the theme "Snakes, Snails & Puppy Dog Tails." I made almost everything using scrapbook materials, my computer, and of course Pinterest.

Let the pictures begin...


Party favors for the kiddos


Party favors for the adults (puppy chow)


My Mom's friend made the cupcakes and cake pops. 











Keri (my sister-in-law) made this A-mazing sign for me. It looked great on the mantel.

The ball pit was a hit! We planned to have it outside, but the weather had other plans.

...and Cooper's face afterward!


Noah taught Cooper his colors. 


Happy Birthday Boy! 


Adam and his son, Ben.


Melissa and the Barker's new baby, Ellie Mae.


Cooper and his Nana.


THE CAKE!

Not so sure at first...



...but then he figured it out.























We had an amazing time, and I think Cooper did too. He didn't even know where to start with all his new toys!


It was so fun to spend the weekend with Kole and is parents. 


Cooper opened a few of his presents. Including his super cool table from Nana & Pop Pop.



He loved opening his present from Auntie Dawn too!


Look how excited he was about her present!


It was an action packed weekend. It was exactly how what we wanted- time with friends and family, and celebrating the most precious boy ever. Thank you a million times to everyone who came and for all the wonderful gifts! Cooper is one lucky kid.
