Evelyn's first Birthday

For Evelyn's first birthday we came back from Morro Bay and celebrated it here.

We played in our back yard, that was a lot of fun.

Here is one of my attempts at getting creative with the camera angles

Manda and I enjoying some of the frosting after we frosted Evelyn's cake.

Evelyn's Cake, Manda and I have a history of decorating cakes not very cute. This one is an Evelyn bug cake.

Evelyn had a little trouble at first figuring out what to do with the presents, then she got it down. When she would open one, she would want to play with it and would get mad at us when we took it away so she could open another gift.

We forgot to get candles so we called my friend Stacie to see if she had any. She was so good, she went to the store and bought a special "1" candle.

At first Evelyn didn't know what do do with the cake.

But she eventually figured it out.

(The band-aid on her leg wasn't because she got hurt. Manda had a band-aid on and Evelyn wouldn't stop picking at it until she got one herself)
