The Big ONE

Cooper's birthday was a huge success. We had so many family and friends come to show their love for Cooper!

We even had guests come in from out of town! Grandpa Gary and Grandma Gary came from Anthem, and Jamey, Nikki and Courtney came from Mesa. Cooper's Grammy and Grampy were there with his Great Grandmother too! Lots of friends came like Auntie Em and Seth who became our fabulous photographer, Stacy, Brady and best friend Reddin-bear, Beth and Jackson who was a pro at helping Cooper open his presents; Matt, Katie, Jayden and Jolie Waite were there who we miss so much!

We had some hotdogs, and other treats plus rocket popsicles which Cooper's Grammy made especially for his party and went right along with his rocket theme!

We started Cooper out with a popsicle which was cold but oh so good!

Then it was time for Cooper's own personal cake

Here he is giving it his first try...hmm pretty good


It didn't take long before he was really getting into it

He just kept on enjoying that cake until it was everywhere

By this time we had already done all of the games and opening presents so he was pretty tired. He went ahead and smeared the frosting everywhere that wasn't already covered at this point.

Then we finished it off with another Popsicle. Oh how fun birthdays are!

Cooper got so many fun toys that we are still getting tons of enjoyment out of months later!

He loved seeing what would come out of each box or bag

I love the look of joy on his face!

He was such a good model standing on the running board of his first motorized vehicle. His Grandpa Gary and Grandma Rainie sure spoiled him!

Thank you thank you to everyone who came and for those who thought of Cooper on his special day!
