The BIG 1

Monday is Emily's first birthday so we decided to have her birthday party today, two days early. The weather might have been really HOT, but we had tasty food, good cake, and some great company.

BBQ for lunch, watermelon for a snack, and cupcakes for dessert. Perfect!

I wish that I could claim that I did these cupcakes, but I can't.
They were delicious though!

Emily had no problem digging into the cake.

Fun in the Sun!

Every year my company hosts a family picnic in the summer at a local water park. In the past it has been fun, but this year was the first year we really enjoyed going as we finally had a little one to enjoy the event with. Emily loved not only the water, but she also had no problems soaking up all the attention she got from my coworkers and their families.

The weather might have been hot, but there was a nice breeze and I am proud to say that with plenty of sunblock, my white little baby left just as white as she arrived.

Good Clean FUN!
