IT'S FUN TO BE ONE!

We wouldn't normally drive to Pennsylvania just for a birthday party, but we're closer than we usually would be! It was about a two-hour drive to Macungie, PA, where Brandon James Powell is just two days short of being ONE YEAR OLD!! He'll turn the big 0-1 on Monday, December 15...

I didn't get as many pictures as I hoped, but I'll post a few here for your enjoyment. Today was an exciting day overall: good news, family, sunshine, what more could we ask for?

Is this guy cute or what?

Mommy is getting a kick out of something, while Ethan (Menkes) looks on!

Now she has calmed down!

Okay, so I'm not crazy about the hat, mom!!

The happy family, with guests, taken from the side, and a little back...

All he really wanted to do with the cake was feed it to mommy!

Grandpa Peter is enjoying the celebration.

A special centerpiece...

By the end of the party, Brandon had gotten a bit tuckered out. That's probably the only reason Aunt Wendy got to hold him!
