Jack Is ONE!!!


Despite his repeated attempts to dive down the stairs or eat harmful objects, Jack made it to his first birthday with flair and elegance.  His proud parents planned a small and simple outdoor party to mark the occasion that quickly turned into a huge, loud, and rowdy affair.  Dave manned the grill and there was food and beverage for the many hungry party goers, 11 of whom were under the age of 5.  The weather was perfect, cool but clear, and a good time was had by all.  Sam spent the evening running with his crew, exploring the neighbor's yards, and stopping only to sing "Happy Birthday to Jack" at the top of his lungs.  When it came to the eating of the birthday cake, Jack turned in a somewhat disappointing performance.  His proficient skills at consuming food prevented the typical super mess that accompanies such a party.  He hardly made a mess, and left not even a crumb of the cupcake.  The day was special, as this year has been, Jack is such a joy and we can't wait to watch him grow!
