Day for a Diva

Journee turned one and celebrated in style with lots girliness.  There was no shortage of pink, zebra print, and of course, wardrobe changes!

Let the party begin with lots of cupcakes, cake pops, and personalized candy!

Journee had the, "Dad, don't embarrass me" look on her face.

Braden was ready to help Journee celebrate!

Loved the photo booth!

Grandma loved the photo booth idea too!

Braden and Casey became fast friends at the party.

This cake was delicious!

Never mind how wonderful it tastes.  The messiness was far too overwhelming!

Just a random photo of us simply because Matt reluctantly agreed to it!

Journee didn't want to be held by anyone, but Matt has a way with babies. 

Miles went missing briefly, but he was found sampling the treats at the candy bar.  Maria thought it was a great idea to have candy everywhere so the kids and adults could have a free-for-all!

Aunt Debbie, Aunt Joan, Grandma Judy and Uncle Jan had a little fun at the photo booth too.

Braden decided to forgo the idea of scooping candy into the bags and simply shoveled it into his mouth instead.  His new buddy, Casey, told Braden that his parents would never let him do that.

Daddy couldn't leave the party without having a little fun with Braden.

The variety of expressions were endless, so we stopped after two poses.

The bouncer is the number one best invention for a party, hands down.

Relaxing or just completely worn out from lots of wrestling?!

There were so many of us in the bouncer that we almost collapsed it. Literally.  Maria was really concerned she was going to have to pay for it.

Journee loved the bounce house too!

Getting Daddy back!

Not exactly the Christmas card family photo we were going for. Pretty cute, nonetheless though!

I thought some mother-son snuggling time would be nice, but Braden just wanted to wrestle.

Sweet Tucker just rolls with the punches, especially when surrounded by so many older kids.

Charley and Braden were a little delirious by this point in the party.

Adorable Journee is looking a lot like her pretty mama.

Braden absolutely loves having a baby cousin.  He just can't wait for her to get a little older so she can run around and get dirty with him!

Where are these kids' parents??

Hmmm, this kid's dad suggested climbing in the bucket of ice while his mom shot a photo...
