Happy 1st Birthday to Jace! 🎈

Tonight we got to celebrate this little guys very first birthday! Jens and Alexandra gave me full reins to do his party and I was THRILLED to do it! 
He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse so I thought that would be a perfect theme.
I bought him the cutest little Mickey Mouse outfit to wear and had so much fun making his ONE banner for his high chair and the Mickey centerpiece.  I also loved making the Rice Krispies, food and setting the table scape. 
I paid my cute little 17-year-old neighbor girl to make the iced cookies. She is so talented! Alexandra's mom made his cake and cupcakes, which turned out adorable!
It was a perfect party for the most perfect ONE year old!

Morning hike to (what's left of) The Big Tree 🌲

We took an early morning hike with Joel, Julie and Ellie up to, what's left of, the big tree.  This beautiful, majestic tree was lost in the fires of September 2018. 
It was a STEEP but beautiful hike with beautiful flowers. The only bad part was that I almost stepped on a bull snake (gopher snake)!
