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!!

Huge Update Part 2!

So after the 4th of July festivities, we went to Green Bay for cousin Mikey's wedding to new cousin Maryanne. We went to Lambeau Field and got a private tour. We were able to see the Packers locker room which NOBODY gets to see. We also got to see their weight room as well as the Super Bowl Trophies!! It was such an amazing tour. That night, we went to the rehearsal dinner where I had a yummy pasta. Saturday we got ready for the wedding and Sunday we had a fun BBQ at Maryanne's parents house. Monday we headed home. It was a whirlwind trip, but we had a great time and Ray San was styling in his little suit =]

Here are all of the pictures.
