Mac's birthday extravaganza

The birthday boy

Playing in the leaves

The shirts says, "If you think I'm handsome you should see my Dad."

Building blocks...or new chew toys?

Mac's 1st birthday was truly a celebration. Saturday our plans for Spooky Zoo had to be canceled due to freezing cold weather, so we decided to head out to Crystal Lake a little early. Luckily the weather took a turn for the better later in the day and we were able to get some beautiful shots of Mac running around playing in the leaves. Later, we celebrated with Nana and Papa and, yes, let him indulge in a glorious pumpkin cupcake. Surprisingly, he only ate half before calling it quits. Could my little boy be a health nut? Dare I dream?

Sunday we had the whole family over for a little birthday get-together. As it turns out, nearly half the family celebrates their birthdays in the month of October. What better reason for a party?! Mac was absolutely spoiled with presents, hugs and kisses and of course more cupcakes than a boy could every want. All in all it was an absolutely perfect day. Thank you so much to everyone for coming out to help us celebrate - we're so blessed to have such a loving, wonderful family!
