Happy birthday to us!


Yesterday and today, Riley and I got to celebrate our double birthday!  Riley's party was at the park on Sunday and we had a party with Mommy, Daddy, Bibi, Zee, GeeGee, Aunt Stacey, Uncle Brad and Uncle Gabe.  With pizza, presents, swings and cake, we had everything you could ask for in a birthday party.

We had a "smash cake" for Riley and I thought for sure this kid would go head first into it and know exactly what to do.  I think he was more interested in trying to pick off the sprinkles than trying to eat the cake.  Maybe that's cause he's been eating cake and sweets since he was 4 months old.  Here is the video of cake time.



Today, we celebrated my birthday at the Cheesecake Factory with everyone and had such a great celebration.  The best part was that we all got to celebrate together!  Riley gave this cake a squeeze and now thinks that every cake is to play in.  Hopefully he'll grow out of that habit before high school.

I've put together a slideshow that I hoped to share at our party but since we didn't have the chance, I'd like to share it here.  My how Riley has grown in a year!  Happy birthday slideshow

What a beautiful memory book and slideshow you put together! We loved every photo and every second. It is pure joy! You are such wonderful parents and Riley is so lucky to have you, and you him. Keep enjoying one special moment after another.

Love,
BiBi

This is such a fantastic show! You did a wonderful job capturing not just Riley's personality, but also your love for him! Good job! Can't wait for everyone to see it! I'm actually glad to be able to view it at home rather than at the restaurant. Thanks for making it for us to enjoy.

I loved the slideshow! So much has happened in the last year and Riley has already grown up so much and learned so much. Beautiful show!

Happy birthday to you and Riley! The slideshow was very cute and is a great thing to always have. One day, you can show his future wife it!
