Pow Wow Party

We did our first (of many) combined birthday parties for Wyatt and Charlotte. It was a Pow Wow - Boho theme and Charlotte dressed for the occasion. I did a few pre-party shots of the birthday kids in front of the teepee. As I'm working on these today I am realizing just how much her hair has grown since she turned one less than two months ago.

For the party, we had two teepees set up in our camp (the colorful one is my own teepee from childhood)

We did an arrowhead dig in the sandbox

Made our own "spirit animals"

And played pin the arrowhead on the buffalo. Noah did pretty well (you know what a knack he has for this game), but it was cousin Jaxson who won this round.

Uncle Dennis brought some noisemakers, which were a big hit (with the kids)

Charlotte enjoyed her first birthday cake (although it was not her first cake as we know)

Noah photo-bombed this one

Charlotte had her own pink arrow smash cake

And of course there were lots of lovely presents some highlights being that Wyatt got a red Paw Patrol bike and a Mickey Mouse suitcase for our upcoming Disney trip. Charlotte got lots of Little People sets, princesses and Minnie Mouses, and a sweet ladybug ride-on.

Here is a good shot of poor Charlotte's eyes after she got cake in them.

Thanks to all who helped make the birthday party a fantastic event
