Grandma and Papa Johnson threw an over-the-top party for Addison's 1st Birthday. We even had fireworks! Okay, so it was the 24th of July, which here in Utah is Pioneer Day and we are lucky enough to do fireworks all over again. (I was seriously 12 before I knew that the entire country didn't celebrate the 24th!). It was a great day because so many people were able to come. Galen and Tiffanee came. Grandma and Papa Mooney were able to come down with Kurt. And Dennis and Patty were able to visit with their two girls, Chelsea and Cammi. It was awesome... until the mosquitos decided to join the party. 
I didn't get a picture of Dodge with the pinata because he broke it that quickly!
Silly String!! Watch out Kurt!
Addison enjoying her pinata spoils!
The cake turned out so cute!
Addison really ate a lot of the smash cake! She had to wash it down with milk, naturally!
Addison snuck over to the presents and began opening while we weren't looking!

The crowd... before the mosqitos anyway!

Dodge and his fish. He cast the line out and reeled it in all by himself! He was so proud.
