On May 22nd, 2009, our sweet baby boy, Edan Brian turned ONE! He has truly blessed us beyond belief this first year. He has the sweetest and most loveable personality. I am glad we named Edan after his Uncle Brian, who passed away in 2004, he often reminds me of Brian's sweet spirit. Since this was the big 1, I wanted to have a big birthday bash for my boy. We invited many of our friends and family to celebrate with us. I decided to have the party around my mom's pool since Edan's birthday month is usually good weather and very warm(Eli and Emma's birthdays are in the dead of winter). We had a cookout with hotdogs and all the fixins, beans, coleslaw, potato salad, and chips. 
When it was time to eat all the kids chose to sit in the grass and have a big "picnic".
After everyone was finished eating it was time for the birthday boy to be sung to and eat his yummy birthday cake(which was made by Sarah August):
We sang to him 
and then I gave him his small cake to eat. He started taking little bites 
and after those few bites
he developed a LOVE for birthday cake! YUM-O! 
As you see, the birthday cake was Edan's favorite part of his birthday party. After he demolished his cake, it was time for opening presents! Yay! 
Happy 1st Birthday, Edan! We love you!
