It's a Sock Monkey Birthday

We had the kiddos first birthday party on Saturday at our pool. It was a really windy day in Ewa, but we tied down our decorations the best we could and still had a great time with our Hawaii friends and family. The babies had a good time but got really tired by the end--i almost thought they wouldn't make it to the cake and presents! Don't worry though, they held out and found some more energy for the best part of the day! Thanks to everyone who was able to come and to our family and friends back home who sent presents for the kiddos!

Holden thought the water was too cold! He just wanted some love!

Birthday boy they seemed to like their cupcakes more this time than when we took our smash cake pictures...maybe because they were a more managable size...or maybe they are just getting used to the sweet now! lovin' it

The Presents---the were very interested in this part...loved the paper and the unwrapping part...and the toys part....basically they quite enjoyed the whole thing!
