Dear Shnooks, I am sorry that I have neglected my motherly duties of keeping you posted on Ezra's growth and cuteness. Here are different posts I promised to update on months ago:
Ezra's First Birthday
It was a success. Party goers came, Ezra was happy, he smashed the cake like it was his life calling, and then we took off to Seattle that night and enjoyed a little day trip there. Here are pictures to prove he turned one and we went to Seattle:
 |
| yum. my first mini smash cake! |
 |
| I love that he touched the frosting with one finger and tasted it. cutest. thing. ever. |
 |
| the cake really did not stand a chance. |
 |
| Our happy family! |
 |
| so concerned haha! |
 |
| One of the games we played. Put Ezra in order from newborn to 11 months! |
 |
| Fairly self-explanatory. There were 557 cheerios, by the way. |
 |
| Isn't she just like sleeping beauty in child-form?! |
 |
| Pretty ladies :) |
Now, a party is not complete until a pinata is included...
 |
| Run, Carl, Run! |
 |
| Even Carl- er, Ezra- joined the fun! |
 |
| Remember young Sleeping Beauty? I LOVE the drama in her face here. This picture cracks me up. A circle of children, possibly debating candy theft or cutting in line for hitting the pinata :) |
I love the fierce look in all the kids' faces when they're about to whack the pinata!
 |
| Even some adults join in the candy picking! |
 |
| Grandma and the birthday boy! His head is so bulbous sometimes :) |
And of course presents!
birthday success!

ReplyDeleteOh Tracey! you captured the party beautifully! I can't help but CRACK UP at the pictures of Audrey ... seriously, awesome. I'm gonna miss you when you move! I wish we could've gotten together more :( You are super sweet and I love your personality!
ReplyDeleteoh, and p.s. you are an AMAZING photographer! Why did I not figure this out BEFORE the day you were moving?!? dang. I needed to use your skillz for some updates of my kiddos. ah well.
