Since we were in Wichita one week before Owen's birthday, we threw a party with all the family!
Someone that attends my parent's church makes birthday cakes, so Mom had her make this one.
It was perfect!
And, of course, a smash cake too.
We got everything prepared.
Then enjoyed BBQ for lunch.
(Thanks, Mom & Dad!!)
Owen caught a little snooze and woke up in time for lunch.
Once everyone was finished we lit his candle.
He enjoyed everyone singing to him!

Then he seemed surprised we were just going to let him dig in.
But got right into it quickly.
Yum!
The bigger kids ate the fondant surfboards.
And Owen shared his cake with Aunt Mikiah.
The rest of us cut into the big cake and ate it with homemade ice cream Derek's Dad had brought.
...while Owen finished up his mess.
Yep, mess.
We got close enough for a photo op!
(You know me!)
Meanwhile, Aunt "Gigi" was protecting cuddling Lyla.
Once Owen was cleaned up, it was time for a few gifts.
He needed a little help.
He wasn't too quick.
But enjoyed the process.
And there were plenty of cousins willing to help.
And brothers.
We spent a while figuring out new toys...
A great afternoon! Thanks, everyone, for celebrating Owen with us!
