Huge Update Part 5!

After Ray San's birthday, we had one more event for Mikey & Maryanne's wedding. Mikey's parents threw him a reception here in Seattle for all of the relatives and friends. It was on the Skansonia Ferry and turned out to be such a beautiful day. We didn't really take that many pictures because they rented a digital photo booth from usnaps.com. It was SO much fun!!

Here are some of the pictures from the photo booth.

Huge Update Part 4!

After we got back from Green Bay, we had to hurry and get ready for Ray San's 1st Birthday!! It turned out to be a great day. The weather was perfect, there was good food and about 70 of Ray San's family and friends. Grandma Pat & Grandpa Ray let us use their home and it was just perfect!!

We hired our wedding photographer (Jan Domek of I DO weddings) to document this special occasion for us. While there, she also did some some 1 year portraits for us.

There are so many great shots that it is really hard to choose my favorites. Here are a bunch!!

Cake & cupcake "smash." I decided to use a cupcake for Ray San to "smash" just because I wasn't sure how people would feel about a kid touching the cake they were about to eat. It worked out perfect for us!!
