Violet Star Turns 1 - Purple Party!

Our super-cool friends' daughter turned one last week. She was so cute playing in her balloons and tearing into her little smash cake. But the best thing about Violet's birthday was that it was in the evening, so after cake came bedtime for the kids and cocktail hour for the grown-ups.

Happy Birthday, Violet! Time for #5!!!!!!!!!

Quesadilla Boss

(we really like the show Cake Boss)
I'm renting this lens (24-70 2.8) for a wedding and decided to play with it a little. I have decided that it's great for weddings and not so great for taking pictures of your kids in your house. I'm so used to my 50mm 1.8, I think not having to move around with the zoom is just confusing me. Anyway, Darbs was really cute in her big brother's old apron. So glad I pulled it out before she grew out of it! Helping me with food prep, however, was a bit of a joke as she kept eating all the tortillas and cheese. I really need to make her a more girlie apron. Good thing I bought some vintage apron patterns when I found out I was having a girl 3 years ago.

Birthday Party!

Fisher turned one big year old last week. It seems like just the other day he was a bump in his mom's belly. Now he's all boy and go-go-go. His party was at the splash pad in Hannibal Square, Winter Park, and it only got rained out twice. Luckily, the kids were planning to get wet so the rain was no biggie. He was so cute with his cupcake. I don't think he knew to eat it at first because he just kept massaging the icing around. But when he got into it, it was serious business. It was a great party and we were so happy to celebrate with him. And take pictures, of course!
