Wonderful at One: Quentin’s 1st Birthday

Sometimes the stars align and suddenly I’m scheduled to cover two birthday parties in one day. Two parties, two locations, two different times – is that serendipitous or what?! After my afternoon at Travel Town, I scooted east to celebrate Quentin’s first birthday.

I LOVE first birthdays. I mean, I love remembering first everythings, to be quite honest. Knowing how unique each moment or each milestone is, it just makes you appreciate it all the more. Quentin’s first birthday was just one such moment.

Quentin running around his backyard, jumping with his dad in the bounce house, waiting for his balloon animal, smashing his hands into his cake – those are are just memories I know he may never remember, but ones his parents won’t ever forget, and I’m so happy I got to be there to help them keep these memories of his special day in tact.

License for Fun: Reagan’s 3rd Birthday

So energetic, so funloving – a complete and total hoot to be around. That’s Reagan. And knowing his parents for as long as I have (I went to high school and college with his mom, and college with his dad), it’s really no surprise why he’s such a great kid (as is his big brother, Riley).

Cars was the theme for Reagan’s 3rd birthday celebration, and what better place to party than Travel Town at Griffith Park. Other than Lightning McQueen keeping the area festive, there was a spot for train track play, an area to play with bubbles and of course, we went on a train ride.

It was a beautiful Summer day and Reagan was surrounded by his fun little friends. Oh to be a three-year old again…

Just One: Jonah at 1

Oh those long wavy locks – they were grand and so chic, and just the perfect coif for his pirate-themed birthday party. He had to get a haircut some time though, so shortly after he turned the big 0-1, Jonah had his first visit for a major trim. What a handsome little boy, my godson is! He’s got such a mischievous side to him too. I can’t wait to watch his parents handle his teenage years. hahaha!
