Apia's 1st Birthday Weekend

It's hard to believe that Apia is already a year old! We had a pretty mellow weekend (no big birthday bashes), although it did include a visit from his cousins and a pretty cake (decorated by his daddy!). Here are some of the highlights.

Acting all grown up.

The photos are darling! Gabriel, dad made the same comment about Apia and the mulch! Also the cake was a work of art. How long did THAT take you??
