We didn’t really plan on throwing Ethan a party this year. But our family & friends had other ideas. Ethan’s grandparents planned a small family get-together for his first celebration. Then a friend in Redlands hosted a surprise second party with other local friends. And lastly, we celebrated a third time during his birthday weekend in Scottsdale, AZ.
I hope this boy does not grow up thinking he gets multiple parties each year! #spoiledsilly
