Atlanta Braves Freddie Freeman dresses up as Willy Wonka for his son’s birthday

Braves Freeman is one cool cat

By now, we all know that Atlanta Braves first baseman Freddie Freeman is one heck of a ball player.  We also know that he has an extremely beautiful wife.  What we’ve learned within the past year is that he’s an amazing father.

On September 18, 2016 Freddie and his wife Chelsea welcomed into the world their newborn baby boy, Charlie.

If you don’t follow Chelsea or Freddie on social media, you should.  They’re terrific.  If you do, you’ve probably seen the many photos of Charlie this past year —hopefully this doesn’t come across as too creepy.

Which brings us to today…one year since their child was born…Frederick Charles Freeman II.

So how you ask does a one year old in the Freeman household celebrate their birthday? Obviously with a chocolate factory!

That’s right…Chelsea and Freddie went all out for their one-year old’s birthday with a Charlie and the Chocolate Factory themed party!

That uber-awesome!  And so cool that they thought to do this…I wonder if it was all in their planning when naming Charlie.

Below are a few photos from Chelsea’s Instagram page.  Go to her page to see additional photos.  You’ll see friends and family there, but no word on if the bubble-gum girl or Oompa Loompas were there as well as if golden tickets were given out to the attendees.

This party looks amazing…food, cake, friends, family, chocolate, Willy Wonka!  What else do you need?

The Atlanta Braves had an off-day on Monday so Freddie was able to spend this special day at home.  The Braves are back on the field on Tuesday against the Washington Nationals.  First pitch is scheduled for 7:35pm ET at SunTrust Park.
