Flashback Friday

I was planning to start with our trip over from the states, but since Howie's birthday is coming up next week, I'm gonna flashback to his first birthday instead.

Nick was underway for Howie's first birthday, so Howie & I were in NC with my parents. The 4 of us had a small birthday party breakfast, complete with chocolate chip pancakes & birthday cake. He was pretty surprised when we let him dig into the cake, but he made the most of it. We went back home to VA pretty soon after the celebration so we could be there to meet Nick the next day. We had his actual party the following Saturday. My parents, maternal grandparents, & brother Spencer came up for the party. We let him go on the cake again, & he almost choked cramming a chocolate cupcake in his mouth. He really seemed to have a good time. I hope this year will be even better!








Giddy up!
