Happy 1st Birthday!!

We celebrated Morgan's first birthday on June 7th! It is so hard to believe a year has already passed, and what an amazing year it has been! It was a beautiful day to spend outside celebrating with friends and family.

Grandma Kopp made Morgan's onesie and tutu

Playing with Miss Cora, who thought the tutu was amazing

Friends playing on the play set that Daddy worked hard to fix up

Morgan and Brandon's smash cakes and the ladybug cupcakes. The cupcakes and Brandon's cake were red velvet with cream cheese frosting, and Morgan's was applesauce cake with cream cheese frosting.

What is this??

Tastes kind of good...

Oh no, now there's something on my finger!

Here Daddy, you try!

Ok I'll try some...

You're right, that's good!!

Morgan loved the cake once she realized what it was. She's such a clean eater it wasn't much of a smash cake. Her mouth and hands needed some wiping, but that was it! We finally had to take the cake away because she would have just kept eating it.

Sydney's hoping for some

Brandon's birthday was June 4th so he got a couple presents too. He got a baseball but didn't know who's signature was on it....

Oh hay...that's Derek Jeter's signature!

Time to open gifts! The cards were particularly entertaining.

She was one tired girl and enjoyed some Grandma snuggles before a nice, long nap

After nap time Morgan got to swing and check out the slide

Hiking Military Reserve

After work Morgan and I met up with our friend Maureen and went hiking on the Military Reserve trails. It was becoming overcast but was still 70 degrees. Everything was perfectly green and yellow wildflowers accented the hillsides.

Dinnertime Silliness

Morgan loves to mimic you (especially what Daddy does) and have you mimic her. At mealtime this involves banging on her tray, clapping, waving, and more recently putting her hands on either side of her head. Last night she was being extra silly.

Easter 2014

This year for Easter we went to American Falls to celebrate with Heidi's family. The weather was beautiful! We dyed eggs on Saturday and on Sunday went to church and had a delicious Easter dinner. Unfortunately we didn't get the best pictures in our Easter outfits because Morgan needed a nap right after church, but at least we still got some smiles! Morgan enjoyed unloading her Easter basket and was thrilled to find the eggs were filled with Cheerios! She also got some bubbles, which we tried to blow outside but the wind wanted to blow them all away too quickly.
