Aimee Mann Was Wrong . . .

One isn't the loneliest number -- as evidenced by the great turnout for Guster's first birthday celebration. It was a packed house and a good time was had by all. Emily gets a lion's share of the credit for the food. I have to take the blame for the party hats. A special thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Ueland, a.ka., the Decorations Committee. Thanks also to everybody who came and helped make Gus' first birthday a special one.

Pictures of the festivities below:

Time to let go, Guster

Everybody's watching

Pretty good stuff

That was a great party! Great pictures, too! Especially loved the series where Gus demonstrates how enamored he is with Ella. Who can blame him?

What great pictures! I heard all about the extra love Gus gave Ella! He is sure a handsome boy! Have a great, long weekend. Love, JoLynn

Your entry and pictures capture Gus's wonderful party! You two know how to throw a Birthday Party! Creative hats and all!

Gus's hug with Ella was sweet! The expressions on both of their faces tell the story well! It was definitely a Kodak moment!

Love, Grandma & Grandpa U
