Tevin's First Birthday

I can't believe it has already been a year but it has and Tevin celebrated her first birthday this weekend!

As a crowd control measure Tavis and Genitta decided to have two birthdays - one for friends on Saturday and one for family on Sunday.

The only problem with that was there were a bunch of us that wanted to see the other kids as well so we ended up going to both parties :)

There were a bunch of kids who showed up for the big party aging from new babies to about nine years old so it was quite a crowd!

This is my little niece (my cousin's daughter but she still gets to be my niece!) Sophie, she is getting so big so fast and is expecting a baby brother or sister any day now.

Tevin was very happy that is was time to open presents again... she is getting really good at that these days!

Braeden came out to celebrate the day... he was one of the older kids in the group but still seemed to have a good time.

Everything Dora was a really big hit. Tevin REALLY loves Dora right now!

Little Jonah could not get enough of this little toy that shoots out plastic balls. I think I only saw him away from the toy for about five minutes the whole day... and that was to go check out the remote control car!

Presents...

presents...

and more presents!

It was a really nice birthday party for Tevin and she really enjoyed playing with all the other kids.

My friend Candy was the other "childless" friend who came to the party. It was good to see Candy again as well :)

On Sunday we did it all again with family this time!

Kent bought Tevin her first guitar so she should be rocking the town before long!

It's a good thing that she liked it because Kent sure was having fun with it and would have been more than happy to take it back home :)

It was another fun filled day full of presents and celebration!

Here is the first birthday cake!

Tevin received an adorable hoody from Grampa Bruce and Grandma Patty... the had on it was just too cute!

and I think one of her most treasured gifts was this beautiful locket from Great Grandma Lil.

I also think she was overjoyed to have all her family visiting all at once.

She put on a great show for all of us!

The fun was neverending...

There were tons of presents to open and great new toys to be discovered.

Tevin also got her very first cell phone. It was a huge hit and she would not give it up for the rest of the day... typical female!

Grandma Patty was lucky enough to be able to take a call on the new phone!

I think we all enjoyed watching Tevin open all of her wonderful presents :)

It was quite an exhausting weekend for all!
