Spring is finally here! After several weeks of bipolar weather (alternating between winter and spring every other day), we couldn’t ask for a better day for baby Gabriel’s smashing 1st birthday party at the Morgan Falls Park.

By the way, when your mom is an insanely talented and creative artist (check out her delicious work at www.iheartdesserts.com), THIS is the kind of birthday party you get, y’all :) With “Barn Animals” theme in mind, she whipped up alllllll kinds of cute little details that will make you go “awwwwww!!!”

Fast forward a few years from now, we’re sure that these photos will bring a huge smile to baby Gabriel’s face (by then no longer a “baby”). But until then, welcome to toddlerhood, baby!
