PERFECT 1st BIRTHDAY!!

JaMarcus is off to a great start with great birthdays! The day was perfect! Grandma Andrus Aunt Char, Aunt Steph, Cousins: Matasia, Keysha, Alyssa, and Jacklyn... drove up from Idaho Falls to shower him with gifts, then we went to the Mall... to get JaMarcus' pictures taken for the big day, we met Grandma Gert and Grandpa Ben (who had driven up from Henderson, NV ) and the Grandma's watched as JaMarcus grinned big for the camera...he loved to smile, giggle, and play, and cried when the photo shoot was over (He must take after his Dad...when it comes to pictures... loves the camera... and always a great picture). After pictures we neglected Dad who was at work (forgot to take him lunch) and we went Down Town for birthday lunch at the Spaghetti Factory...JaMarcus had a great time making an enormous mess... and eating birthday ice-cream. We then went to the park... and some took a nap after the spaghettii lunch and some of us went on a walk...to the friendship bridge.. the brige that goes over the river from the park the the Boise State Camupus to see where I work.... Then it was time to take Lou (the Dad) some lunch... Family visited for a minute and then they were off back to Idaho Falls, and JaMarcus took a quick nap... and his Parents watched the New York Yankees win there game! Then we prepared for the night party at the Boise Hawks Baseball Game. We had many friends show up for the party. The birthday cakes were perfect!!!! Yvonne made the birthday cakes and JaMarcus was covered in cake from head to toe... His Dad pushed his face right into the center of his cake...Poor kid.... JaMarcus got game recognition and was a the star of the night. The game was exciting... and the Boise Hawks won the game... ending the perfect 1st Birthday!
