J. Weisse turned one-years-old on Nov. 1, 2008. We had a Monkey Party and invited all his cousins and second cousins and good friends too.



Jack was my protege and co-party planner. He helped me turn the Burch's porch into a jungle by making vines and palm trees and hanging lots of monkeys everywhere. He was so excited about it, but I think the vision in his head was something bigger than any of us could have handled. He is my god-son and he just may take after me and become a scenic designer.

And had a monkey photo cutout (thanks Dad)

Jimmy got more presents than he could handle

And he demolished his monkey cake.

After it was all over, he had some time to start enjoying his gifts.
