Mother's Day and Audrey's Baby Dedication - May 12, 2013

The weekend of May 11-12 was a very eventful one...Preston's birthday, a family member's wedding, Mother's Day and Audrey's baby dedication at church...here are some photos. It seems big occasions are the only times we get family photos :)

Audrey's 1st Birthday Party!

Audrey's 1st birthday party was at her Grandma and Grandpa's house on June 15, 2013. We had a kiddie pool and a slip'n'slide, which Mason thoroughly enjoyed. Audrey missed her morning nap and so the whole party thing wasn't as fun for her :( But she rallied by the time the cake and presents rolled around...

Mason was apparently being fed cheetos while he was playing...can we say "spoiled"? Thanks Rach :)

The birthday girl's brief playtime in the pool, with cousin Emily

She preferred sitting on the sidelines, watching the other kids in the pool

lunch time! enjoying some hot dogs

this face says it all

Mason: "you eating that chip? Don't mind if I do..." (he is notorious for stealing off others' plates)

Audrey's smash cake

Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, happy birthday....

not sure what to do with this thing

little taste of frosting

hmmm, that's pretty good

a litte more icing

Did someone say cake?!?! Here comes Mason, checking it out

Mason giving it a taste, showing her how it's done

Yeah, doesn't really like her hands being "dirty"

Now cake for everyone else!
