We decided not to do a party for Gray's first birthday. But I still arranged a playdate with our friends that have preschoolers (or younger) at the indoor playground at Cornerstone Church on Monday, November 2nd. Missy, Suzy, Jen, Ashley, Laura, and Wren were all able to come with some of their kiddos.
The indoor playground is amazing and so much fun for the kids. It's like a Chick-fil-A playground times ten. And it's free! Gray wasn't able to do too much yet since he still wasn't walking (and is super shy) but he still seemed to enjoy it!
After awhile we took a break and ate lunch. I brought along cupcakes (with a fish theme) to celebrate Gray's birthday.
Gray trying his first cupcake ...
He ate a couple of tiny bites but wasn't really interested in eating it.
I love that so many of our sweet friends were able to celebrate Gray's first birthday!!!
Gray's actual birthday was the next day - Tuesday, November 3rd.
I've always made banners for the older boys when we have parties for them and had to make one for Gray's first birthday even though we didn't have a big party. Again, I went with a fish/underwater theme and colors. They didn't show up in this photo, but I also decorated the columns next to the streamers with origami fish.
What a cutie!!!
Gray had a ton of presents to open!
He did a good job tearing off the paper (and had lots of help from his big bros!).
Gray really liked us singing to him :)
Getting a little him with blowing out his candle ...
Again Gray wasn't that into eating his cupcake but he tried a tiny, tiny bit!
