1st First Birthday Party

This past weekend we celebrated Jentry's 1st birthday with my side of the family back "home" in Northern Indiana. We are blessed that one set of my grandparents live in a community that has a building that can be used by any of the neighbors. It is a wonderful place to hold family gatherings such as birthday parties or graduation open houses. My grandma ended up in the ER on the day of Jentry's party so she wasn't able to enjoy the festivities. Grandma...we hope you are feeling better soon and we hope you enjoy these pictures of the day :) Jentry arrived at her party sound asleep...she didn't know what was about to happen!We were blessed with many wonderful gifts for Jentry to enjoy!Of course Jentry had her own cake. We ordered her big cake from Costco, it was a white cake with chocolate mousse filling. Jentry's "little" cake was made by the lady that created the wonderful goodies Jack and I had at our wedding. We LOVE Alma's cakes and wanted Jentry to enjoy one for her 1st taste of cake.Mommy and Daddy with Jentry before she dove into her cake.Jentry enjoying her first taste of cake...or icing...I can't tell if she's enjoying it or not...Mommy and Jentry opening her awesome giftsJentry making a fast escape...leaving Mommy to open Jentry's gifts all by herselfAunt Verda, thank you for traveling all the way from Florida to share Jentry's special day with us.
