Ryden's rookie year celebrated!

We celebrated R's rookie year last weekend with close friends and family. It was a baseball extravaganza and it was a special day that we ( Brian & I), will never forget. We got lucky with perfect weather but since it was after the 4th of July when summer usually finally comes to the PNW we knew we had pretty good chances, but you never know up here as I look outside to gloomy skies right now! R did enjoy his day although I don't think he knew all the excitement was for him. It was a very surreal day knowing that one year prior, just after mid-night I met & held my precious angel for the first time. I will do another post about his first year but this is just about his big celebration. Thank you to all that came & made this day even more special for us. We feel blessed beyond belief everyday to have such amazing people surrounding us.
