The baby shower crew!

This weekend is Cassie's baby shower so all the family is coming into town today! We are so excited to see everyone. Derick and Cassie got in around 12:30 and Matt, B and Dash got in around 3. We decorated the church for the shower after they got here. The shower was a great success and lots of fun! Today we celebrated Ace's 1st birthday! (a few days early) He wore a really cute shirt that we had custom made for his party and big day. I made him (with the help of Maci) his Cookie Monster cake and everyone else had homeade Monster cookies and ice cream. He got cars, a pretend cell phone, remote and camera, clothes, shoes, $, DQ gift card, books, Turtle light, John Deere toolkit and a few other toys. We had quite a crowd: Papa, Nana, Derick, Cassie, Matt, B, Dash, Austin, Maci, Whit, Josh, Lo, Mark, Ana, Destiny, Steve K, Dave, Nana B, Liz and Amelia.  He LOVED his cake. At first he just kinda poked at it and stared and then when we showed him what to do, he REALLY got into it! Mr Dash joined in the fun, super cute! G of course had a few handfuls of cake as well! Ace got a much needed bath when his baby belly was full. That evening we went to Daimaru's for dinner. On the way home, the baby monster passed out due to his sugar coma:)
