It's Time for A SAFARI!!!

On Saturday we had Paysen's party!! The best Surprise of that day was that Kaylee and Ayla and Tom and Jess and their kiddos came. I had no idea :) It is seriously all that I wanted for his Birthday and they all came!! It meant so much to me. In fact I got a little emotional hugging Dulany and Ayla!! Paysen loves his cousins and I am so glad that they came to party with us!! Alex's family came as well along with his friends here/ It was so fun!! Thanks to everyone who came. I think I counted 32 people came!! Too fun. I had so much fun getting it all ready and crafting for it. I didn't get a ton of pictures during but here is what I got!!


 The sign so everyone would go into the back yard


 The sign over the food table




 We had a candy bar/ snack food for the little kids :) They loved it





The Water bottles


 We had a photo booth..

 I decorated the fence with table clothes, and I made this sign with the animals fun fun






 We had a big BBQ and I made signs to go with the Safari theme.. ( the watering hole etc)






 Kid plates

 Our birthday hats for the photo booth as well :) 

 Miss Ayla


 I also made my own canvass.. of Paysen's first year pictures and hung them on the fence as well

 We love you buddy




 I adore this picture!!!

 Opening gifts... He had a lot of help :)

























 The best part was that Mason surprised all of us and gave Paysen Alex's old football helmet. Alex gave it to Mason before Alex went on his mission and asked him to take care of it and keep it safe :) And then Mason gave it to Paysen for his Birthday. It seriously was the best gift ever!! I teared up a little bit knowing what it meant to Mason!! I couldn't believe he then gave it to Paysen. It looks like we have to stay in LG so Paysen can one day wear it :) 


 Paysen loved it and kept giving it kisses too funny




Cake Time 
 Paysen's smash cake 





 HE was ready to dig in... 


 HE at first didnt use his fingers because he didnt want them dirty so he took bites like this haha





 Love it






 He said "BYE BYE" to everyone before he went into the bath tub :)

 We then all played games it was so fun!!




 My favorite picture of the day!!! Happy Birthday Buddy!!


 We then got to sleep in our camp trailer :) My tuckered boy sound asleep on daddy!!
