A Monstrous Birthday Party!

We threw a little Monster Birthday party for our very own Rocco-Monster this weekend...and we had a blast! I've gotta say thank you so much to everyone who came, and for all of the awesome stuff Rocco got! We had such a great time and loved celebrating with our loved ones!!


I loved this monster baby shower a friend of mine did, and decided to use it for Rocco's party (thanks Jess for all the ideas, and Lis for suggesting it!)

Oh and I better warn about the amount of pictures that are to follow. They were all so stinking cute though...and he'll only turn 1 once, right? Right?? Consider yourselves warned...

The decor...







The guests...
(those I managed to snag at least...didn't get everyone!)

Dustin w/Zander, Lisa, & Nat w/Emery

Kev & Rach (if you look closely they're wearing monster attire!)

Marc & Ash, Dad

Jay, Hay & Lola

Ty & Jordan (and a little bday boy)

Rach & Asher

Shauna, Chloe, & Alli

And the cutest guests (no offense), the kiddos!...

The balloons were a big hit with the kids... Mr Rocco Williams checking them out

Mr Krew Bell checking them out

Rocco showing Dev where they are :)

Mr Devro Radebaugh checking them out

The balloons also provided some darling photo ops...

Krewzer


and Dev...with his great little smile!




Precious babies...

Miss Makayla Williams

Miss London Bell

Mr Zander Vohs
(Emery, where were you hiding??)

I figured Kev fit well in the kids section

Presents!

This pretty much sums up the present opening experience...except with more of me opening them, while Rocco did other things and ignored the gifts :) I could put a whole bunch of pictures of me posing with a big smile on my face with Rocco's cool gifts...but instead I'll say he got awesome stuff and thank you EVERYONE!!!!!

Oh and most of present opening time was spent fishing scraps of tissue paper and wrapping paper out of the back of his mouth...

Holding his tool box like a big boy

And introducing...
Rocco Monster!

Some of his favorite activities include eating gifts. And that's it.

Vampire Baby

And, finally, another attempt at some cake. Not nearly as messy this time--and the dog was outside so he paid more attention to it!

Thank you soooo much to everyone who came, we had such a great time seeing everyone and celebrating with everyone. We love our little Rocco-Monster!!!
