It's hard to believe, but our little guys turned one last month! Their birthday was on a Wednesday, so Bobby and I took the day off and took the two of them along with their cousins to an indoor play area to spend some family time together.
Then on Saturday we had a small birthday party with our family to help us celebrate

Daddy bought the boys fishing poles and wrapped them up so that he could give them their first fishing poles! |

Cake time! Dominic has the blue cake, Derek has the green. I made their cakes myself so that they could be organic and with fresh whipped cream icing since they're not too big on sweet stuff yet. |

Derek doesn't like to get his hands dirty- so he just uses his face! |
