Alex, my nephew, turned 1 year old on wednesday, and today was his birthday party. I woke up at around 10:30 to go to a park in mountain view by 11am with my parents. There were a number of people there including my sister of course, Alex, my cousin Lisha and her husband and kids, lots of Dave’s family, and a few friends. There were probably about 25 people there, we ate some good little sandwiches and snacks before having some birthday cake. Alex was so cute when we all started to sing him happy birthday… he didnt really care about his little cake, but more abou the fact that we were all clapping. He just clapped along with everyone and had a grand old time. After our cake settled, Alex sat on a picknick table with all his presents and watched his mother open them for him… It was cool to see which ones he liked, and you could really tell, especially when he wouldnt stop climbing all over the boxes and trying to figure out what was inside. I also took over 300 pictures of alex and the party while I was there, and now I get to upload them while i wait for Jacob to get here so we can go on our daily bikeride.
