Grant's 1st birthday party- dog gone fun!

Baby Grant turned one last Thursday! We celebrated with the Marshall side of the family on Saturday. Grant had a dog themed party since he loves dogs, points at them excitedly, and sometimes says "dog" or "woof."

His cake- wasn't sure what it was going to look like. Kinda like Ralph from the Muppets, I think.

He recognized that it was supposed to be a dog, so that made me feel good.

V and C with the puppy chow.
For party games we did dog training: fetch, roll over, beg, lie down, sit, jump over this stick, jump through the hoop, etc.
The kids had a fun time with it. It was fun when Grant really did some of the things we asked the little puppies to do, like crawling through the hoop.

We also played dog, dog, cat.


Then it was time to sing Happy Birthday!

Dad helped him blow out the candle.


He tried the cake.

Honestly, he totally preferred the apple juice.

Grant had a fun party! Thanks to the family for coming and for the nice presents. He is enjoying them!
