Let's Party!

Ethan's 1st birthday party was this weekend. We had family & friends come to celebrate with us. Ethan was so overwhelmed by all the people around him that he cried for most of his party. At one point, he had to go upstairs to calm down and rest with my aunt. 15 minutes later he was ready for some cake.

This year our street hosted a block party for the 4th of July. It was a lot of fun to get to know our neighbors more and to hang around our own neighborhood this year. Ethan slept through all the fireworks, except the whistlers. During those he'd open his eyes, stare, and then go right back to sleep when they were finished. Can't wait for next year.

A Blast From the Past

- My 16th birthday party.

I recently bought a negative reader so that I could take all of my old 35mm film and convert it to digital. It's actually a really easy machine to use and I've already converted over 500 pictures by doing it for the equivalent of 2 hrs a day over 3 or 4days whenever Ethan goes down for a nap. I still have a ton of pictures left to do.
I've found some old photos from high school and college. It's so interesting to look at the clothes I wore, how I styled my hair (or actually did something to it!), and remember all those old memories of youth group, jazz choir and boys...lots of memories of boys! I was a "little" boy crazy and DRAMA, DRAMA, DRAMA. That's another story for a later time.
Here's what I found:
