Payson's Golden Birthday

Payson celebrated his 1st birthday and -it being October 1st- his golden birthday!! We sent out football invites, had football cake, took pictures as a football player and wore our new cougar football shirts. His baby guests weighed in for the team roster and played with inflatable footballs. Patrick & Erica showed off the new backyard "oasis" that finished justin time -and Payson received a blow-up pool & slide that will take up most of the grass space!


The MVP -Star QB - Payson Lewis!!


Happy Birthday dear Payson...
No interest in cake until I gave him a fork -he's obviously very clean and sophisticated with his eating habits.

Wall of Fame -Payson's amazing shots throughout the year month-by-month.
Backyard Fun:
Payson loves running on the pavers and gravel -but NOT the grass. And if I put him on it, he freezes, looks concerned, then cries to be "saved."


See my tomato plants? They've gotten HUGE!



LOVES his new pool -and we haven't even filled it with water yet.



Perfect weather and an inviting backyard lead to Patrick smokin' us up some burgers and pork chops.
