Owen and I were so excited to be able to attend Silas's first birthday party today! Brittany outdid herself as she always does.
It was a football themed party and she had all of your favorite tailgating dips and taco soup, perfect for football season.
And then there was the cake:
Brittany never ceases to amaze me with her cake making skills! I mean really? I am always so impressed that she can just whip a birthday cake up. She could really go into business.
Instead of gifts for the birthday boy, they asked that friends donate to Water4. Such a neat organization that some of Brittany's friends are involved in. Water4 is dedicated to eradicating the global water crisis. They do this through a business-based approach at the village level that puts the solution in the hands of the people who need it the most.
Just a few of Silas's buddies that came to celebrate his first birthday.
We had a great day celebrating with one of our favorite families!

We are so happy that you and Owen were able to celebrate with us! It was so special for us to all (well, almost all since David was working) be together! Yet another birthday celebration that we were able to share! Also very thankful that you were here to help me keep my head on straight!
