Can you believe it, our baby turned 1!!!! James had his 1st birthday on St. Patty's day. It has truly been the busiest, fastest and GREATEST year of our lives!!!
James' birthday celebration started a couple of days early when his sweet sitter Crystale threw him a party at her place with all of his friends from her house. She made him this beautiful cake and spoiled him with sweet gifts. He LOVED digging into his first birthday cake.
A couple of days later on St. Patty's day we celebrated James' birthday with some of our dear friends from the neighborhood and ward. My mom, James' Lady was able to come too!! Thanks mom for all your help!!!!

I have always looked forward to making my children's birthday cakes...I probably went a little overboard. Thanks to my sweet friend Brie (she provided all the pans and recipe for the fondant, not to mention lots of moral support) this actually was much easier than I thought it would be and it turned out pretty well...not that James really cared.
Some of James' friends playing with the bubbles. It was a BEAUTIFUL day!! We were able to play and lounge outside and fill up on cake and ice cream.
I am sad I didn't get any pictures of James with all of the kids that came but here are some of the little cutie pies. The two beautiful girls next to James (Bryn and Ava) are our dear friend Jenny's girls. Jenny watched James for us for nearly six months when I went back to work. They adore him and he adores them. It is so cute to watch them together!!! The handsome boys on the left are Carson and Landon, Brie's boys. The other kiddos that came were Jay, Alice, Duncan, Eva, Max, Kate, Gabe & McKay...Thanks to all our wonderful friends that were able to come celebrate James' big day. We are blessed with great friends and are SO grateful for all the love and support you show us!
James taking his first bite of cake!
He LOVED it!!! Totally takes after his mom and dad.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY Sweet Baby James!!!!

He's 1 already?! Dang, that means my little guy is around the corner (in 4 months) :) I totally love the cake you made him. I want to make a fondant cake for Blake too...any suggestions or tips?
Your cake turned out awesome! Glad you liked working with fondant cause I hate it! James is so cute! Isn't it crazy how fast time flies? Hope you guys are doing well!
They grow up so fast huh? Looks like you had a great time celebrating his birthday!! That cake you made looks sooo cute!! Did you use MM fondant or regular? MM is soooo much tastier in my opinion, but I'm sure kids don't really care all that much yet. :) Either way it looks yummy :) Happy (late) Birthday Baby James!! :D
A cute party for a cute boy! Thanks for inviting us, it was fun!
Mandi I am so impressed! Looks like such a fun party and the cake is AMAZING! I need lessons.
