Happy Birthday, Will!

Our nephew, Will, turns 1 this Sunday (May 31st). It's hard to believe that he was born a whole year ago! We had a wonderful time at Will's first birthday party last weekend. We got to see not only our side of the Yurasko clan, but also the DC side (Beth, Lee, Kelvin and Bryce - we're so excited to have them all living nearby now) and the Virginia Beach side (Frank, Mel, Frankie and Jake).

Here's the birthday boy - looking like a toddler, on the playground with his daddy.

Alexandra and I love playing with Will.

Here's the youngest generation of Yuraskos. From the left - Kelvin, Will, Frankie (holding Alexandra), Jake, and Bryce. Frankie was so sweet with Alexandra! We can tell that he's a very good big brother.

Erica did a fabulous job on Will's birthday cake. She also made some cupcakes with mini Elmo heads on them.

Here's Alexandra having her first cupcake. I didn't know what she would think of cake - but check out that expression - - -she LOVES it! I could barely wrestle the wrapper off in time (she ate part of it - oh, well!). As soon as she tasted the icing, she absolutely destroyed the cupcake.

I was going to get off the icing with food dye before she ate the cupcake, but I wasn't fast enough. This is a preview of what's in store for us at her birthday in three weeks :)

We love you, Will, and hope you have a great year as a one year-old!
