Happy 1st Birthday David Jr!

[Ash-a-ley]

Is it just me or does it seem like the past month has been nothing but standard sunny southern California  weather?!   I have been taking advantage of it at every chance possible!  I spent the evening with Dave and Stacey to celebrate their little man's first birthday.   It is hard to believe a year has passed since their BirthStory!   I see a LOT of cute kiddos, but I honest to goodness could NOT stop telling his mom and dad how CUTE he was!!!  Those chubby cheeks, and big, blue eyes!!   Definite future heart-breaker...AND big brother!    Stacey and Dave are waiting to find out what they are having....but they know my guess.   I have a feeling David Jr. is going to have a little brother very soon!   

And a big thank you to R&R Event Designs for creating David's personalized birthday board!!

I first met this adorable family of four when they were a family of three.    I captured big brother, Lucas' One Year pictures (which you can check out HERE).  A LOT can change in 18 months.....little boys become big brothers and families of three become families of four.   The Hubbell's are no exception.   They contacted me a few months ago and let me know that their youngest would be turning one.   I always love seeing my client's through the years.    Lucas was just as adorable, charming and cute as he was before.  He has definitely taken on the big brother role quite nicely.   I could see how Jacob looked up to his big bro.    Loving this lovely family!    

Happy 1st Birthday Easton!!!

{With Love - Ash}

It will be one year in September that we were celebrating with Jan and Mike at Lola's first birthday party.   Jan pulled me aside and told me the news, they were expecting baby #2!!   No one really knew yet, but she had to let me know that they were definitely doing a birthstory.     Fast-forward nine months and one year and VOILA~Here is Easton.   Easton and his entire family (yes there is one more on the way) have become an extension of my own heart.   Watching these guys grow as a family and grow up is one of the best perks of my job.    Easton is having a farm themed birthday party, so I went out to scout locations and find the perfect barn setting.   Mike and Jan even made the super cute cow cake themselves!!   Very crafty, you two!   :)    

 I just love this family.   More and more each time.  

The wind was in full force that day!!!!   We rocked it to our advantage the best we could!   

And time for a little walk down memory lane.....
Here is the last year in a nutshell:
