Visiting Grandma Jodi

A few days after Talon's birthday party we went to visit Grandma Jodi near San Diego. We stayed a couple days and Erik's cousin and her husband & kids came too. The kids had so much fun swimming and playing together. We went to the Aquarium one day and ended up buying a season pass =)
It was good weather so we spent most of the trip in the pool....which was just fine with us.

Talon's 1st BIrthday Party

Happy 1st Birthday little guy!! On June 9th, 2012 Talon turned one!!
We had his party at a great park in Yorba Linda called Arroyo Park. We rented the picnic area and no one came to the park all day, so it was like it was all ours.....it was awesome!! I decorated in a prime color "party" theme. It looked so great with all the green grass around and the clear blue sky. The weather couldnt have better and all our close friends and family were there. It was so great that Erik's cousin from Washington was going to be in town the same week of the party and was able to come and bring her family. The kids had a blast playing together.
We had tons of food and cupcakes for dessert. Talon opened gifts....well i opened them, but he played with them =)

It was a great day to celebrate our little guy. Cant wait to see what another year will bring.
