At the playground with Matteo!

Daniel had a fun time with his friends Matteo and Julie last week. Here are some pictures from his time at the playground at Greenlake.

On the swings...

Holding on tight...

Ready to go down the slide!

Wheeeee!!!

The Pumpkin Hunters

After Daddy recovered from running the 10K Dawg Dash this morning, we all drove out to Remlinger Farms in search of some perfect pumpkins. What an adventure we had!

On the way to the pumpkin patch!

Daniel takes off on his own.

Found one!

This way, Mommy!

The pumpkin hunters pause for a photo.

This one's mine, Daddy!

Lost in a field of pumpkins.

Helping to carry home the loot! What a fun day!

The Big 01

Yesterday, Daniel celebrated his first birthday with a small party of his family. Though Grandma took a lot of pictures, Daniel's busy parents were only able to take a few. Here they are!

Up bright and early, the birthday boy is ready to play.

Mmmm....cake! Thank you, Angela!

I love the feeling of frosting between my fingers!

With the presents all opened and the cake all eaten, at the end of the day the balloons still have tons of appeal. (Sorry there is no sound!)

Game Day

Daniel was so excited for Saturday's husky game last weekend, he wore his football pajamas to bed the night before.

Slushy, his stuffed husky.

A great game-day smile. If only he knew what would happen in a few hours...

Remote: check. Sippy cup: check. Slushy: check.

Watching the beginning of the game with Daddy before heading off to bed.
