ONE: Gavin's Preakness Party

I turned one on May 18th!  I planned my birth so my first birthday would coincide with Preakness.  My mom had a lot of fun planning my Preakness Birthday Party!

She painted the centers of these fake yellow flowers so they would look like Black Eyed Susans, the Maryland state flower that are out of season in May.

She printed these fun invitations, to invite my friends to my horsey birthday party!

My wonderful Grammy made hobby horses for me, Laura and our friends.

I loved my cake.  I even had it on the back of my head (saving it for later), but Mommy gave me a bath and washed it all away.  What a waste.
