We had such a wonderful time at Jude’s first birthday party at the zoo! Here are a bunch of pictures from our day!
He loved this monkey from Pops and MiMi.
I made chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter filling and peanut butter frosting.
MiMi made these fun favors (peanuts in their shells).
Family pictures…
Remember this bunting banner? I used it at Vera’s first birthday party, as well as our “county fair night” last year at the beach!
As usual, we had lots of great food! Pulled pork, salad, slaw, chips, fruit, baked beans, watermelon, pickles, and more.
I’ve already shared the smash cake pictures.
Jude was pretty excited about opening presents! Of course he had lots of help!
It was raining for much of the afternoon, but it did clear up when we started to go see the animals.
Feeding the giraffes is always fun!
But goats are, apparently, hilarious!
If we hadn’t seen this goat standing on top of a sheep, we probably wouldn’t have believed it.
It was too funny!
We got to see the penguins being fed! They waited so patiently!
One of the highlights of Vera’s day was getting to splash in all the mud puddles!
What a blessing to be able to celebrate our sweet Jude’s first birthday at the zoo!
