Copeland Ware turned 1 year old on May 19th
Happy Birthday, sweet boy!
This was the collage his parents posted on Facebook to commemorate the day.
He loves his rubber duckies :-)
And this is the collage I posted for his birthday
His parents hosted his birthday party on the Saturday following his birthday. Aunt Jen and Copeland are checking out his balloons
The party was scheduled at a nearby park but a couple of hours prior to party time, there was a 60% chance of rain, so Rachel and Jonathan decided to go ahead and have it in their home.
First there was gift opening......
and in the background, a cute PowerPoint slideshow of Copeland's first year on their TV
A swimsuit for summer
Every boy has got to have his balls
Delicious food (pigs in the blanket, pickle roll ups, chips and salsa, and watermelon)
And cute (and super delicious) rubber ducky cupcakes
Copeland's smash cake (so cute!)
The Birthday Boy and Momma and Daddy
Momma and her boy
Daddy and his boy
A picture of our family (Josh was once again working out of state)

Another pic of those in attendance
Then it was eating time.....
His turn is coming
We are singing "Happy Birthday" to the little guy
Finally took a bite
And that's as messy as he got :-)
He did do some damage on the backside :-)
One more 'messy' pic with Mom and Dad
Bath time!
All cleaned up and Papa getting some cuddle time
It didn't go ahead and rain, so we all headed to the park to let the kids have some fun
He liked the airplane
Ellie does love to slide!
Ellis (Matt's little girl) loved the alligator
Laine tried to work the shovel--it was hard!
Our oldest and our youngest
The Papas resting in the shade
Cousin Ellis and Laine saying goodbye
A couple of pictures with the birthday boy!
One of our gifts to Copeland was a plastic slide. He didn't open it at the party as there were too many other gifts to open. But it was opened later in the weekend, and this picture and video was sent to us.
He's just too cute!
I love his squeal!
We love you so much Copeland and look forward to many more wonderful birthdays with you!
