Hard as it is to believe, our sweet baby Rylen turned 1 year old on November 21. I had taken the week off (since the kids were out of school all week) and Aaron took that day off, too. So we spent the whole day having fun as a family. It was wonderful!
|
We started the day with homemade smoothies for breakfast. |
|
Rylen thoroughly enjoyed his! |
|
|
Next came presents... which Rylen enjoyed very much as well! |
|
We followed lunch with a trip to Up Up Jump - where they have a big bunch of inflatable jump houses, some video games, and other fun stuff for the kids. Everyone had a really good time. (Though I don't think I would pay full price to go again.) |
|
They really liked the big slides! |
|
Of course, Preston found a little girlfriend while we were there. It seems wherever we go, Preston finds a girlfriend. He's quite the little ladies man! |
|
We topped off the day with a trip to Cinzettis (awesome Italian buffet restaurant). Aaron and I had been before, but it was a first for the kids. They all loved it and want to go again. In fact, Haley has already asked to go there for her birthday next month! Rylen had a chocolate souffle for his first birthday cake and LOVED it! |
It was a wonderful family day... everyone together, mostly getting along, having fun. Great memories!
(Since I didn't want to make this post enormous, I only posted a few of the many photos we took. If you want to see the big bunch - I'm probably just talking to the grandparents here - you can go to the dropshots account to see the lot. www.dropshots.com/taradon)

Sounds like a perfect, fun, and less stressful than throwing a huge party for a 1 year old who doesn't understand what all the to-do is about, kind of birthday!
