i want to call this post... i am sorry senor seuss...

happy birthday dr. seuss... march 2nd...

to celebrate:

i planned on having green eggs and turkey sausage monday morning bright and early... but... it just didnt happen... i know i know... it is green eggs and ham... but i dont like ham... i do like green eggs just not the ham... sam i am...

... we had a party but not for you... it was for my little boy true...

one year old and growing tall... he is no longer small, no not at all...

we ate some cake; both vanilla and chocolit... thats not all we ate ice cream too; a-lot-of-it...

our hope is strong for next year... that we can hold a party dear...

for our beloved dr. seuss... whose words are awesomly chosen and more perfect than zeus...

...first birthdays are supposed to be the best and biggest right???...

here is a play by play of his first birthday cake...

the cake...

... in awe with the candle...

...accidently blew the candle out... and in awe of the smoke...

...saying "ooohhhh" and wanting to touch the cake...

...squishing... mushing... and playing...

...full on playing/eating with the whole cake...

...proudly done with his first oreo cookie ice cream cake...

the presents...

i made these 'abc' blocks for jones... the english alphabet and then i added a few so that he also has the spanish alfabeto...

these were a few of my favorties...

happy saint patricks day...

we had blue-raspberry-green-apple fun dip this morning to ring-in saint patricks day...

...then we went to the zoo...

...jones loved the birds...

...especially the flamingos...

...and... the mango italian ice... yummy...

thanks for a fun trip to the zoo grandma martindale...

1 months late... happy valentines day....

we went to popeyes for valentines... now that i love hamburgers... these are the best...

i will miss them!!!!!

then we went to pick out some new plants... for his first ride in a wheel barrow...

and... we didnt have time for a christmas ginger bread house... so we did valentines ginger bread houses... thanks for thinking up such a great idea holly!!!

one last only in mexico...

four cheese pixxa... not a spelling error... that is how it is pronouced here...

a few more favorites...

bonfire... on the beach...

jones loves water bottles... we have i dont know how many of these all throughout the house of all shapes and sizes...

carnival...

we had so much fun at carnival* ... every year we would always say... we should check it out... but never would... it took us knowing that we werent going to be here for the next carnival to get us there...

it was fun... tons of rides... even more food to try... and lots of crazy games... brent and kevins favorite: the guy dressed up like the devil... with the most irritating whinny voice.... calling at them... with insults... that they had to try and hit with a baseball... through a tinsy hole (that was for you alan)... that you can barely see the guy through... and... he had the nerve to call brent bald...

... they sure did bring a crowd... and a good laugh... congrats to kevin for finally getting a ball through the hole!!! to win a dirty stuffed nemo!

... the wierdest cotton candy ever... i dont even know what to say... but... of course i still ate it...

the many faces of carnival... poor little guy... we kept him out very very late!!!

*side note for myself...we went to carnival the 20th of feb...

the beach...

while kevin and melissa were visiting us we went to the beach for the day and then later for pictures... thanks for the beautiful picture!!! (first picture taken by melissa... www.melissawilliamsphotography.com)

happy birthday mr. jones...
