HAPPY BIRTHDAY
LUKE ANTHONY IBA
OCTOBER 25, 2010
Our sweet Luke is 1 years old today.
I needed to make a cake so I put a movie on the portable DVD player for Oliver to keep him busy. He pulled up the Care Bear chair and got comfortable. Apparently he got very comfortable and fell asleep sitting up. Where he then promptly fell over.
I had the kids help with the party. Marissa and Andrew helped wrap the presents and Oliver helped clean the frosting beaters off.
Luke had no idea why we had filled a bag with paper. He was more than happy to take it all out though and was excited to find a ball at the bottom of the bag. The kids really loved using tissue paper!
Paul snapped a couple of pictures of me finishing Luke's cake. I made a big mess filling up the frosting bag so Marissa helped clean it up for me.
I had a lot of big helpers. They all wanted to make Luke's first birthday special. Marissa got the best job of us all. Yummmmmmm!!
This little push cart is one of the toys Luke got for his big day.
He put his new ball in it and a stuffed puppy and
pushed it around the rest of the night. He loved it.
Now this is my favorite part. Give him a candle to blow out. Oliver couldn't stand the candle being lit. So he blew it out for Luke. Then we gave him his own piece and he tore it up.
Everyone enjoyed some cake and ice cream.
Luke enjoyed it the most. A whole piece of cake all to himself. Now there is a happy boy.
I'm really greatful that it turned out. I got really sick a few days before this and felt terrible this whole day. I really wanted Luke to have his party so we got it together and made it happen. This picture makes it all worth it.
