WOW. We can’t believe it’s been a whole year, but today is your birthday! We had a party for you at the Minnesota Zoo, themed “Sea Creatures” since it seems to be your favorite part of the zoo.
Many of our new friends attended:
- Jack, Emmet & Ollie Wilcox
- Joy, Audrey, Molly & Maddy Himmer
- Steve, Carter & Charlie Crane
- Todd, Gracie, Adi & Gavin Dexter
- Jud, Katrina & Luna Kilgore
- Jason Johnson & Rachelle Traut
- Molly Murphy & Ben
Of course Grandpa Boyd and Grandma Belinda. And joining us via Skype were Mimi & Doc.
We started with some activities while you ate your lunch, then the rest of the crew had pizza. There was coloring, a little talk about dolphins and finally CAKE (Although your cake was made up of many cupcakes). You were a little reluctant to eat the cupcake at first, but mommy and Grandma Belinda finally coaxed you into it.
After that we all went into the Tropics section of the zoo, the Minnesota Trail section and finally, the Undersea section. Our guests had to leave, but the family remained to take a tram ride around the park.
You also got a few things from the party, but we asked that people bring toys for Toys-for-Tots (for kids not as lucky and fortunate as you). You even stayed up in the car and hummed all the way home.
I hope you had a good day! We love you. Happy First Birthday.
