Casen Samuel Mink turned 1 year old on October 12, 2008. Here are some pictures of us celebrating his birthday last year! This was nice and early in the morning- the party was just about to get started...
And after lots of groaning moaning and pain, the birthday boy arrived... 7 lbs 11 0z. (I think 21 inches long----- don't quote me on that)
Casen made a GREAT addition to our family, as you can see, he is beautiful baby.
This is us getting our true celebration on for Casen. It was the day after he was born! The nurse supplied party stuff and a cupcake for Collin! It was really cute.
Fast forwarding to this year... Little C attempts to blow out the candles. Well, actually, he attempts to grab the candles. (Yes- more than one, but we told Collin he could blow some out also)
The happy family... and a solid year with 2 kids under their belt.
Casen loves to give ginormous open mouth kisses. Whenever you get one, you can't just help but laugh- because you get so wet!
Or pull away... :) But, its so sweet.
Casen dug into his cupcake- but just liked playing with the frosting after he took a few bites.
I put this picture up because right now Casen's FAVORITE thing to do is walk around holding and throwing balls. He is obsessed with balls! It's even more exciting to him to throw the ball down the stairs and watching it bounce off. Casen also really enjoys barking like a dog, quaking like a duck, trying to play in the toilet, wrestling around with his brother, hitting and pulling his brothers hair, eating food with his OWN silverware, getting rocked and sung to, and playing outside-particularly on Collins scooter. Casen is VERY independent, very loving, very cute, into everything Collin is playing with, very stubborn, and very into his daddy. We are so blessed to have Casen as part of our lives. We love you little buddy! You are the best! Happy FIRST YEAR!

It's hard to believe that little Case is one. It's been so much fun to see him develop his own personality! He's been so much fun! And as gross as those slobber-kisses are... I can't help but love them. I think it's legit for me to say that I have the most adorably-wild nephews on the planet! I love it.
What a cutie. You two must be awesome parents because it just seems like they both are really flourishing. And Casen is looking cute in his birthday gear. :) Love you guys.
Happy Birthday Casen! What a fun age. Nash went through the open mouth kisses too. He is just getting to the point where he is learning to close his mouth for the kiss. We love kisses!
Your cupcakes are so cute. Way creative! Go Jesse!
Guys-
I just got caught up. CUTE Casen-it's crazy the blonde babes are 1! The conference hike looks so awesome & Dave did a fabulous job on the sheepdog! Sammy is talented.
Love you guys-
April
Alright-first of all-no one is supposed to look that beautiful before and right after a delivery! Second-your little guys need to keep my little girls in mind in about 20 years. They are both so darn cute!!!
How cute! Happy belated bday! Your cupcakes looked so cute!
Oh my gosh!! I can't believe he's one already!! Time just flies doesn't it. Happy Birthday Cas!!! And we need to get together soon. so call me.
Ok Jesse ann, i agree, you aren't supposed to look that great before or after having a baby! Not fair. Your boys are so cute! About the whole law school thing, we are just waiting to hear where we get accepted. For a while with this whole deployment we didn't think we'd go, but now, we think it just might work out perfect when Greg gets home. I am a little nervous, but I know it will work out how the Lord sees fit. I really want to see you guys, maybe give me one more chance to hang out with you guys. I think Drew and Liv would love to play with your boys. So, call me and I can tell you more about our Law school sitch! Really cute pics. Lisa
