Gwyn is one today! We are so blessed to have this little sunshine in our family. I can't believe a whole year has already gone by. We had to celebrate her birthday on Sunday along with Father's Day because of Nate's work schedule and he left yesterday for Boston. Since he will be gone until Sunday we thought we would celebrate with our family before he left. Happy Birthday Gwyn, we all love you so much!
I didn't know if Nate was taking a picture or a video. That is why I look so unhappy.
One of her presents, she loves banging on the drum.
Her Aunt Michelle is here visiting and gave her this chair. She absolutely loves sitting in it, she just has to fight her sisters off of it first.
I used a cake pan my mom gave me from when my sisters and I were little. So I had to decorate it the way my mom used to make our cakes. However, I took an easier way and didn't do a layer of frosting first so you can kind of see in between the stars, but hey I still think it turned out cute.
She wasn't too into the cake and especially didn't like the frosting. Instead of making a huge mess and scarfing it down she started to hand me the pieces of cake she didn't want. I guess she is not a cake person (well not yet at least).

What a cute cake and cute girl. Happy birthday to Gwen. Hopefully I will get to see her some day. When are you coming out to visit?
I wish we could come out to visit soon. I am not sure when the next time will be. My parents have now moved to Washington state and so the times I come will probably be less. However, I want to come and see everybody there one day soon. I feel grateful for technology and being able to keep in contact easier.
I love the cake! It brings back the memories. What kid doesn't like frosting? It's better that she doesn't, I suppose. You trying to give her the frosting reminded me of Nate force feeding Kali cotton candy at Disneyland.
Lora, I thought that same thing. I told that story the other week to my friend. It was so crazy and funny.
The cake looks great Nicole and she will love looking at pictures of the whole event when she is a little older. Maybe she will be like her mommy and want pumpkin pie for her birthday! If so make it! The kids will love it. We had none thrown away at your birthday parties.
