Birthday Babies!

Jake and Liz are officially one as of yesterday. It's hard to believe how fast the last year has gone. And how much our lives have changed. It's been rough that's for sure but we survived it. I just hope we can survive the second year as they both start walking and talking.


We had their party on Sunday at the old house for friends and Chris's side of the family. I made the cake myself out of cupcakes which meant no cutting! It was dairy and egg free for those that have allergies so that everyone could enjoy. Although I did see some cupcakes left behind sadly missing their frosting. Perhaps I should have also set out the extra frosting...

Liz having birthday party day lunch...does she know she's turning one?

Having some cake. I didn't get too take many myself because I was hostessing. But everyone else got lots so I'll have to get them from them!
