Just Keep Swimming Ryder Jeremiah!

On Saturday, July 12, we were surrounded by our closest family and friends as we celebrated Ryder Jeremiah's 1st birthday! It was a perfect day and over $1,000 was raised for the Cleft Palate Foundation.  In honor of our precious Ryder J over 100 cleft teddy bears will be donated to a cleft affected child.  I am so honored, proud and blessed by everyone, near and far, who donated in honor of Ryder! Thank you all!









Every birthday calls for a pinata!



Water balloon toss was so much fun!

A Very Happy Birthday!

Ryder Jeremiah's 1st birthday was celebrated in magical style! After the morning's photo shoot (where Ryder thought we were so weird as we sang and danced) we spent the day at Disneyland (over 10 hours) where Ryder met Mickey, saw Nemo, rode several rides, sat like a big boy on the merry-go-round and indulged in parades and goodies! It was the perfect day and we can't wait to continue celebrating at his big Finding Nemo birthday bash tomorrow! May the celebration continue! Oh how we love him! 
It's a small world was of course our very first ride at Disneyland! Ryder loved it!  
Meeting Mickey was one of the day's highlights! 
Ryder even wore his special Mickey birthday boy shirt! 
Riding the merry-go-round like a big boy!
Clapping for the Pixar Parade to start. 
A power napping birthday boy! 
The Jungle cruise...
Oh hi Nemo! 

Getting ready to leave. We were all tired! 
Tram ride back to the car. 
It's exhausting turning 1!
