The birthday details...

We celebrated moses' 1st birthday in my mom's backyard with family and a few friends. It was a great afternoon! It felt almost surreal that we were celebrating his birthday. I can't believe he is one now!







On his actual birthday a few days later Mike and I presented moses with his very first car. He seems to like it.

That night we met Mike's parents on Commercial Dr. for Ethiopian food. It was a lot of fun and the food was AMAZING. We had missed it soooo much! And Moses of course loved it all! I can't even put into words how much I loved seeing him eat his injera and lentils and pretty much everything else that you see in the picture.








oh how we are thankful. I truly see each day with moses as such a gift. We are so thankful to be his parents!

Happy B-day Moses!!! You look like you had a super fun day, and yes, Eden and you have the same ride!

Glad to hear M liked Ethio food, Eden was so-so on it. Her first piece of injera she gagged on...

What a cutie! We celebrated our Emmett's first birthday at the same restaurant. His second birthday was at the one on Hastings (Lalibela).

Enjoy the next year, it's so much fun!
