Azalea Festival at Honor Heights Park - Muskogee, OK












This afternoon we went to the "Azalea Park" as I call it. It's such a beautiful park because of all the azaleas and dogwoods. It's a great place to take pictures. Here are some of the cutest pics of Daniel...

Sleepy boy




Daniel's 1st B-day Party

We had Daniel's 1st birthday party last Saturday and it was lots of fun!! First, though, we had to get the house ready (as you can see Daniel helped)... :)

Then some friends and family came over to help celebrate. Daniel really had a lot of fun playing with Trey and Justus and also Uncle Josh and Paw-paw!



Here's Phillip and his Dad Bruce grilling the hamburgers and hotdogs - yummy!!

After we ate, Daniel opened his presents. Thanks to everyone for all the great gifts!! He really enjoyed opening them!


Here we are singing "Happy Birthday." Daniel was kinda awed by everyone singing and the fire on the candle. My mom made a mandarin orange cake for us and it was so good!


Paw-paw and Uncle Josh putting together a Koala Climber - one of Daniel's presents.


Lastly, we gave Daniel a piece of the bday cake to see if he would eat it. He actually didn't get very dirty. He did enjoy himself though!!


All in all, we had a really fun party! It's just so amazing to me to realize that a year has passed. We've survived! :) It's been so rewarding watching Daniel grow and learn, and I'm looking forward to another year with a wonderful little boy!

Pretty flower




Here's some pics that Phillip took of a pretty flower while at the park. You can see how tiny it is in the picture with Phillip's wedding band...
