With all the excitement of Seth arriving in December instead of January, we got a little behind but did not want to forget about Dalin's first Birthday so this post is a little late.

Dalin had a wonderful first birthday party. He had most of his family and some good friends at his celebration. He had a sheet cake with a big buck theme and his own little cake which he dove in to and really enjoyed.

They enjoyed getting away for a short time.
