The Hinyard-Lash Experience: Starring Leslie, Jeff, Esme, Brynn, Han, and other members of the Hinyard-Lash family

Happy 1st Birthday, Esme!

Sunday, August 9, 2009

Yes, we’re a bit behind, though with so many visitors, travels, and pictures to go through, it’s a wonder we’re even able to post anything at all. Esme is officially 1 year old, and celebrated her birthday on the day-before with a nice party at our house. Other than rain which kept the party indoors, everything went great. Esme loved her first taste of cake; the kids had a great time playing with all of her toys; the adults had a great time watching the kids; the hot dog bar was a big hit; and Esme collected some fun new stuff to play with in addition to a bunch of great donations to the St. Louis Crisis Nursery.

It was a special treat to celebrate the day with much of our family who made the trip to St. Louis, along with lots of our friends. Here’s to many more years to come.

    Look at Esme’s eyes in the top right hand picture! She’s going to be a heart breaker!

    So many hot dogs. So little ketchup. Sadness. I have it.
