Alec's Birthday Party

We had a birthday party for Alec last Thursday night. Grandma and Grandpa Gillingham, Uncle Kevin, Brittney, Michael, Uncle Dan, Aunt Emily, Adam, Uncle Harold, Aunt Barbara, and the Caswells came for the party.
We had a barn/farm theme for the party. I decorated the cake and Mom decorated the cupcakes.

Mom had some farm cutouts that she had used for Bible School, so we put them up.the barn door

Another game we played was to guess how many M&Ms were in the jar. There were 597! Dad won with a guess of 502 and Sarah was second with a guess of 501.

Alec dug into the cupcake. He loves food, and he definitely liked his cupcake.


It was a very fun party for a special little guy. Happy Birthday Alec! We love you!
