The birthday boy!

We had a wonderful time celebrating Daniel's first birthday on Thursday! I managed to document just about everything we did in photos. Here are some of my favorites!

Into town to meet Brian for lunch and visit the zoo!

We are planning a big birthday shebang in another couple weeks with all of the grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. You are only one once, so you have to do lots of partying!

What great pics! I got to see the Kodak Gallery ones, too. I just melted. Is he not the cutest one year old around?! :) I am so glad little guy had a fabulous day. You are such wonderful parents. He is blessed, blessed, blessed!
Hooray for birthday number 1!
God bless
