Big weekend, last weekend. Lots of family came to celebrate Colin's 1 year birthday. G'ma Mary, G'pa Bill, Nanna Sheila and Pappa Bill, Jen, Zoe and Justis, Christine, uncle Russ, and (great)-uncle Paul. Fortunately, Kathy and John were able to host the festivities for us. Many thanks for all the help in preparing and during the party everyone! Colin had a great time!
No real smashing of the cake. Colin was more interested in really tasting the icing and cupcake. He received lots of great gifts (books, clothes, noisy toys...), and some great big gifts (a Tweety bird stroller, a pint sized chair, and an Audi quattro).
Colin napped eventually. Later, we all gathered again for a big meal at Buca di Beppo. Great location to feed an army like ours. It was birthday night as all the tables around us had someone to sing too. It was wonderful people watching for Colin, so he was easily entertained as well as very entertaining the entire evening.
