Sponge Bob Extravaganza

Evan's first birthday was at Mac & Manco's on the boardwalk and we really had a blast. We didn't get that coastal winter storm that was supposed to happen and the day was cloudy, but nice. We bundled up and hit the boards!

Before the party Evan opened gifts from Josh and Aunt Brittany. Josh wrapped up his old Blackberry, which Evan LOVED! He put it to his ear and said 'hi!'.


Evan dined on pizza and carrots. Here he is with Grandmom:

Here's the whole restaurant (which was open to the public) singing to our baby boy (and my dad too!)

I love Bob's face here (by the balloons)

Uncle Larry gives his signature expression:

Evan eats his Sponge Bob cake (unfortunately, no shots were taken of the cake itself).

Gifts were opened...

Evan's wearing his "Make Pizza, Not War." t-shirt that Becky and Chris got him. He's got sleepy eyes because he had to skip his nap to party.

The aunties partied too!

Here's Janice, Chris & Becky (w/ Aunt Wanda in the left corner)

Once again, the MVP award goes to Jake Sullivan, who took his nap for the first half of the party, woke up and put on his goody bag glasses to party the rest of the time. He's seriously the chillest kid I've ever met. here he is with mom, Toni.

Afterward, we walked back to the cars to go to the afterparty at my parents' house.





After the party, Evan cruised away in his new Radio Flyer car. He loves to play the radio and put on the blinkers.



Evan stayed up until 10:00 to be with everyone (after a 5pm nap!) Here he is with Grandmom and PopPop. I know the balloon string is in the way, but my dad refused to pose for any more photos.


Thank you everyone for making Evan's 1st Birthday so special! We love you all so much.
