Jake's 1st Birthday


So long since my last post! Sorry, things have been so busy.


But I have a great one to post today - Jake's 1st birthday was May 7th. We had a birthday party for him in Grand Rapids Saturday at Uncle Jeff's house. It was so nice! Thanks to everyone who came - it was a wonderful time.


Here is Rachel in her and Jake's tent from Uncle Jeff and Aunt Molly. Her birthday is May 24th so she got some presents early.
Rachel pushing Jake on his new Mickey ride on plane. They loved this. Jake is actually strong enough to push Rachel around too which was hilarious to watch.

Here is Shae and Rachel at the party.


This one looks funny so I have to explain. It is a Polish family tradition at a child's 1st birthday to place a shot glass, silver dollar and rosary in front of the child to see which they will choose. this is supposed to determine whether the child will be a drinker, rich, or a priest (real wide range of choice available). You can see what Jake chose below.
