Happy Birthday, Baby.

My very favorite nephew celebrated his first birthday this week.
Let me tell you, the kid knows how to party.


Sharing a popsickle on the porch with Megan.



And Katy too.



Delicious!


Nathaniel also got his first haircut



and received the squirmiest baby award.



But in the end, he looked good, and he knew it.



For dinner, Beth made an amazing spinach lasagna,


everybody helped make the garlic bread sticks,

and Megan approved.


For desert, I made my very first strawberry pie.

And Beth made a lemon cake with cream cheese frosting for the birthday boy.
