March - True's 1st Birthday

We moustache you to come celebrate Truman!
 
It would tickle our whiskers if you would join us for Master Truman's 1st birthday in "true" gentleman fashion.  Lunch and cake will be served.  Mustaches will be provided.
 
 
 
Details:
This was such a fun party!

Even baby Rachel wore a mustache!

Look at this cute boy!  Can't believe he's 1!
 
 
 
You'd almost think the eyes closed on them both was planned :)  unfortunately this is the only picture of the birthday boy in his mustache.
 
 
What can I say...I'm Italian :)

...and here's our Italian son  :)
 
 


Our big 1 year old!

Love this smooshy face!

Food:

We had tacos and quesadillas to order.  Grandmops helped out making the quesadillas...I think we were counting how many we needed.
 
 
Dig in!








 
 
 
Cake:
These pics are not in order...sorry.
It was good, now we're full!

My first homemade lemon meringue pie.  It was surprisingly much easier than I thought it was going to be.  The lemons were from the lemon tree at our old house.  Thanks Tim and Erin for bringing us some lemons!
 
 
 
I made the cake.  It was fun, but stressful.  The cake was completely homemade and it was really good.  The cake part was amazing.  The frosting was good, but I think I'd rather have a chocolate buttercream frosting than a chocolate cream cheese frosting.  Still adorable and it was good!


Getting ready to sing
He hadn't had really had any sweets until today.  He LOVED it!







Singing "Happy Birthday"










I just want to kiss that sweet cheek!
 
 
Success!
