Birthday Uno

Let me first apologize to all other children I have that may see this post someday. I apologize for not giving you as extravagant a party as was thrown for Beck on his first birthday...but let's be honest...do you really remember what you did when you turned one?

Talk about crazy, but we still had fun! Beck's day started at the Pumpkin Patch with 2 of his favorite cousins. Highlights of the day include:

Playing in a bunch of corn?



Eating said corn:


Going on a tractor ride to find the perfect pumpkin:


(Beck is having fun, I promise!)


sitting in the pumpkin patch, a little overwhelmed:




watching Jovie get stuck straddling the mud tracks from the tractor (not happy about this, as you can see):



searching and searching for the perfect ones:



waiting for the tractor to pick us up with our pumpkins:




Riding in some barrels with wheels attached to them attached to a tractor (Only Beck's head is showing, can you find him?):






pony riding for the girls:



playing in the hay:




and not pictured, a petting zoo.


Ahem. In Beck's own words, here is how the evening went.

"Here's me with GG. She's the only normal one at this party. My mom made me dress up in this crazy outfit and I'm sweating like a pig."


"Here's me with my Aunt Kelli and my two cousins, Halle and Jovie. Halle won the costume contest, and I can see why. She looks wicked cool."


"I think this was the best part about my party:



when will I ever get to see them dress up like THIS again?"

"Here's me doing some stuff



and eating a Snickers bar."

"Here's some more people that came to my party; everybody is pretty special to me. Here's Uncle Ron,


Great Grandma Gillespie (we get along well),


Uncle Cade,

my crazy mom and dad,



and my friends Tim and Brooke."


"My mom and GG made me my own special cake. Ya, I liked it."




"Here's my dad trying to steal my cake. I showed him."


"Everybody else got cake, too, and some cookies. Here's some pictures of them."



"I guess all in all, it was a pretty good day. Thanks, everybody, for coming to my party!"

Love, Kyle Beckham Hardy, age 1
