Adventures in Iowa Part 1: Happy 1st Birthday Hudson!


Our favorite nephew (he's our only, so I can say that!) turned 1 in July so of course Craig, Trooper and I made the journey back to Iowa to join the celebration!!   Katie had a baseball theme party fully equipped with ball park fare- think nachos, soft pretzels with cheese, hot dogs, brats, malt cups and peanuts served in helmets.  We all got baseball tattoos and played Hudson Trivia- which I thought for sure I would win, but unfortunately I didn't : (  It was very creative and a  lot of fun!  We celebrated a week early while more family was in town so stay tuned for Hudson's actual birthday day post : )  

Here's how we celebrated... 

Hudson was excited about all his presents... or rather, all the boxes!! 

oohh... a box!!...
climbing on top...

...to the perfect spot : )
finally some little boy toys to play with
A fun new truck!
Time for cake...


Hudson's very own cake!
He loved it...

Hudson's birthday party was a great time with family and friends and a perfect celebration for a precious little boy.  We love you so much Hudson!
