Sun. Sept. 12, 2010~Jackson Turns 1

On September 12th my baby boy turned 1!!! I can't believe how fast the time goes by. Its crazy!! We had a family birthday party for him in my mom's backyard. It turned out great. I told my mom I wasn't going to buy any decorations or make it a huge deal because it was only his first, but she surprised me with balloons, decorations, plates, etc. It was fun!
Alicia (SIL), Tyler (brother), Karen (stepmom), Ellie (neice), Marshall (brother), MaKayla (neice).
Fred (stepdad), Jenny (SIL), Paul (Clint's Grandpa), Sonja (Clint's Grandma), Jackson, Clint, Kent (Clint's dad), Kristen (Clint's sister), Clint (Clint's BIL), Billy (my grandma).
Jackson having fun on the slide. He accidently went down a couple of times but loved it every time.
We had a visit from a snake.
Opening gifts.

The cake
Jackson and his crazy faces! He loves sugar and he used to make this face whenever he was eating lots of yummy treats. Now he makes it just to watch everyone laugh. He loves to make people laugh.
My favorite.
Happy birthday Jackson! I couldn't have asked for a better baby! You make us smile, you melt our hearts, you show us unconditional love. You are the sweetest baby boy and blessing to this family. You are so loved by everyone you meet, even strangers. I thank my Father in Heaven for your sweet spirit and silly personality. You keep me sane when things are crazy!
