Cleo is 1!

I can't believe she has been here for a year already! Cleo's first birthday was last Friday and we held her party on Saturday afternoon, which was Halloween. We had a costume party with a few close friends and family that came into town. I think a good time was had by all and Cleo didn't disappoint with her baby antics.

Getting Cleo into her Snow White costume...she wasn't thrilled


Cousin Annabelle was a butterfly. They sized each other up and wondered why everyone looked so funny.




This is probably the best picture ever (incidentally I was Medusa, Jeff was a greaser)

We got BBQ takeout from around the corner for lunch!


After everyone chatted for a while and feasted on BBQ, it was time to get down to business. The business of opening birthday presents. She wasn't really into it, but I'm sure next year will be a different story. And luckily Mother Nature came through in a big way, so we were able to spend the day outside! (Yes, we are in short sleeves, on Oct 31st, in New England!)
